Between eroticism and the grotesque, the performance unsettles familiar markers: to love the body is to taste excess, to traverse the shift from pleasure to disgust. Here, taste itself is at stake, not as a matter of mere preference, but as a battlefield. Beauty and ugliness are placed on the same plane, while the codes of festivity are subverted to reveal an unstable substance, strained between desire and aversion. In this discomfort, taste breaks free from the role of simple judgment to become a critical force: not a measure, but a space of dialogue, a terrain where each is compelled to take a stance.

Andrea Vezga Acevedo is a costarican/venezuelan maker, performer and booty-centric movement researcher based in Vienna. Drawing from diasporic dance traditions and contemporary forms, her work explores movement as a language of liberation.
Elisabeth Bakambamba Tambwe(host/artistic direction). As an artist, choreographer, and director, Elisabeth B. Tambwe works with different forms and genres: performance, choreography, film, interactive and generative formats, as well as with various dramaturgies and spaces such as installations and stages. She is interested in the emergence of new forms of otherness and the unique relationships and languages they produce. What do they reveal about our humanity, and how do they challenge the concept of anthropocentrism? Her projects are transdisciplinary and collective, aiming to create shared spaces of research between performance art and the social sciences.
