2023 – With Jesús Torrivilla
OUTsider Fest – Austin
“Erotic Reclamation” is a series of actions that correspond to each poetic interaction. In this performance, we explore violent interactions of mutual aggression. Jesús used a Walter Benjamin book as a shield while I stabbed him with a bowie knife.
He is a curator, writer, critic, academic and researcher exposing himself to an interaction, a ritual, a hypnosis with me, the poet, who destroys his book and his shield, who rides him and bathes him in milk. It is a dance, a fight and the prevalence of irrationality.
