DON’T) LOOK ME IN THE EYES
(DON’T) LOOK ME IN THE EYES is a dance performance inspired by the story of the Greek myth of Medusa and the Gorgon sisters. It is a piece for three human performers, two robots, and an avatar that tackles the notion of the monstrous and the relationships between bodies and technology. Its aim is to reflect on the representations of women and queer characters in the foundational narratives of Western culture.
