Not Ur Fetish centres the trans body as a surface of projection. Drawing upon the iconography of the mermaid as an inherently non-binary entity, the performance explores themes of disgust, objectification, rebirth, and metamorphosis.

QUEER BODIES is a three chapters video installation that explores the process of embracing queer identity: From the death of the former self, to the searching for agency, to the creation of a community. The viewer is drawn into a reality where subjects tell about themselves and bodies manifest themselves in an unconventional way.
