CHALLENGE OF REALISM
 2020
Performance

 English

Rachel Monosov (IL), Victor Dumont (BE) & Lisa Lapierre (FR)

With participatory and personal research the trio seek to examine & explore the politics of historical and contemporary movement through performance, installation & video.

The Challenge of Realism is a dream state where the past collides with the future, merging into a new realm of knowledge. Exploring how the human body interacts with non-living and living objects, our perceptions of time, and some loss of control over it.

​

The research project explores the gestures of the past and cultural appropriation, and considering these elements' influence on contemporary movement. Mass-tourism, interpretations of stigmatic ideals, and images of an ego generation will fuse into a new perspective on current society.
