INDIGENCE = ELEGANCE

Allow me to provide you with an idea of the way the show unfurls by showing you a transcription of the cheatsheet which I keep close to the computer in case my memory fails me:

Indigence=elegance is the generic title given to a transdisciplinary, heteroclite and anti-thematic compilation of performances selected for the occasion (or even developed in situ), in which the jackass cohabits with kickarse coordination and the incongruous slugs it out with the downright down-to-earth.

I am even allowed (thereby going against all forms of professional ethics) to use items from my other shows. After all, rock bands don’t hesitate to do so. In fact, given the opportunity, I would claim to be a unipersonal indie rock band which does video art performances with choreographic references. Perhaps I should say a visual artist who explores the liturgy of the spectacle by making musical collages.
