How does the conflict between desire and shame manifest in the body? 

In her debut work as a choreographer, Kalina Georgieva confronts both the repression and the exploitation of female sexuality. She explores the conflict between desire and shame in the female body through a choreography drawing inspiration from classical visual representations of infernal creatures in the work of Hieronymus Bosch and Gustav Dore. 

The piece aims to confront misogynistic, patriarchal, religious clichés depicting women as either saints or sinners and questions the hypersexuality of our present, commercially dominated era. Three women embody creatures and monsters whose channel could be, in turn, the Fates and the Harpies. They unravel and remodel the power exerted over their bodies, assert their position, and respond to the gaze of the audience.
