During a hot summer we meet in the only possible place. Held by the sea, we fight tenderly. This is not a performance. It is not a video. It is not a video of a performance. It is a performance in a video. A performance that has never happened, performed in an online format. It is a ruin of a performance, built in the ruins that are inside and around us now. We meet the audience inside these ruins and invite them to experience flickering realities and their multiplicity of time and spaces. What grows in the ruins? What might come out of these cracks and holes? It takes tenderness to fight for it. We meet you there. Welcome to “Tender Fights 2020”.

Biography
Ana Dubljević, Kasia Kania, Marja Christians
Ana Dubljević, Kasia Kania, Marja Christians lernten sich während ihres Masterstudiums „Choreographie und Performance“ an der Justus-Liebig-Universität in Gießen kennen. Mit „Tender Fights“ setzen sie ihre Körperstudien aus queer-feministischer Perspektive fort, die sie zusammen und in anderen Konstellationen u.a. als Teil des Kollektivs Christians//Schwenk begonnen haben. Mit Humor und analytischer Schärfe nutzen die Künstlerinnen die Kraft der Performance, um gewohnte Wahrnehmungsmuster und Körperbilder zu verqueren und auf Machtstrukturen aufmerksam zu machen.
