Arrangement

EXPERIMENTAL/ CANADA/ 2013/ 3.26 min/ SANS LANGUE

Working with the flamboyant excess that is gay aesthetic – the performance artist/ film maker has created a deeply personal moment for the audience with a humongous bouquet of flowers. Playing on the double meaning of the word “arrangement” the artist alludes to the unspoken and sometimes difficult arrangements we make interpersonally in queer community. This flowery performance unfolds a slow humorous bodily transformation which leads to a surprising and tender outcome.
