IT'S SO GOOD
Commissioned by Transitions Dance Company/Laban Center London/UK
It´s so good is about sexualization as a currency.
It’s so good is so plastic, it’s so empty. Like in Andy Warhol’s line: “I’m afraid that if you look at a thing long enough, it loses all of its meaning.” And, if vision is taken as tactile, and touching as a distant gaze and form as a metaphorical speech, I’m afraid we’ll find ambivalence and it will hopefully allow other perceptions to take place and doubt to emerge as a critical experience.
