Suksen

Suksen stems from a curiosity around the fetishization of the popular imaginary of mourning and wake rituals. What would happen if, from a queer perspective, we approached death? How can we return to the intimacy and stillness present in this catharsis? What exists within queer practice that can help reimagine this tradition and its forms of care?

Suksen explores, through the body, a state of physical extremity, positioning itself in the limbo between intimate darkness and a noisy dawn. It works with residual capacity, inherent to a tired body that continues to move in order to survive, to be heard, to be accompanied.
