POSTMORTEM. Pour en finir avec le jugement de dieu

[POSTMORTEM: To Have Done with the Judgment of God] 2006–2007

27.9.18 - 7 pm

An extract from panel 7 of POSTMORTEM. A solo female performer wears a loudspeaker which plays excerpts from To have done with the judgment of God (1947) by Antonin Artaud, a radio play which here also serves as a form of choreographic score. Made inert as an individual by the skin-tight garment that covers her entire body, the performer becomes a crawling and indeterminate body-thing that emits vocal expressions. She is literally burdened by a device that only amplifies Artaud’s constant evocation of the voice as a kind of excrement and his palpable obsession with the misery of existence.1
