lovely liquid lounge
Liquid Loft creates a room. A Liquid Lounge. Persons are moved. Inside. Sensitively. They talk about encoding, outfit, transgression, sound bytes, settings, … They walk gently, almost levitating. No one steps in. No one stops the process. China is vast and this too is a good thing. The socialite, or shall we call her a lounge lizard, tells of winters in the private room. In the back, Wan Tao is grinning. Strangers are posing, divas are whispering secretly. A lot happens simultaneously, the performance escalates, one feels at ease.
The China Project is the central performance of the Lounge-Set and has been developed by Liquid Loft and Jin Xing Dance Theatre at the Shanghai Oriental Arts Center.
Various performances are installed in the lounge setting throughout the evening: Ah, Poetry (Stephanie Cumming), Mode Francaise (Jakob Lena Knebl, Chris Haring).
The fashion designer Lisa D. stages a theatre of sale and Hans Scheirl recalls the summer of 1995.
