“With elegant steps the performer moves towards you. The desire in their eyes fixes like a elster one of your accessories. With a focussed gaze, the same is moulded out of silicone and placed on this very accessory. With each new kneading movement, the viscosity of the material and the body is tested. At some point, the kneaded object becomes only a memory of the gesture, no longer consumable in the now. So long. Until we meet again.”
