KILL ME
(2024)
Kill me (2024) is the continuation of Love me (2022) and Fuck me (2020), in turn it is part of the project “ Remember to live ”, in which I intend to present different versions of works until the day of my death.
Entering into the cliché of the midlife crisis, I began to film everything I did: with my heart open 24 hours a day, I recorded everything.
Until one day I collapsed, I was given a psychiatric diagnosis and I decided to make my next piece out of it. I called on four dancers with mental disorders and Nijinsky, to make a piece that talks about madness for love.
But let's say that the topic is about mental health so that it enters the inclusive agenda of the art market.
Because that is my punishment, having to make works that sell and thus stay alive in the world (of theater).
