“After Life” is the second duo in a trilogy that marks the biography of a body by means of existential states: its presence in flesh and blood, post mortem and in view of im/possible futures.
In “After Life”, the performers appear as obfuscated post bodies that hover and haunt what is literally the other side of the spatial design where the first duo “Show and Tell” played out. Nic Lloyd joins Simone Aughterlony on stage as iconic representations of body and soul. Together they question a contemporary conceptualization of the body and how that relates to our thoughts and musings on possible extensions of the body after life.
Within the 22. International Festival of Contemporary Arts – City of Women, part of the Biofiction Trilogy.
