CHICKS* freies performancekollektiv (Berlin)
Biography:
CHICKS* freies performancekollektiv unites experts and interdisciplinary artists in the idea of a queerfeminist network. In intensive research processes CHICKS* search for common ground in their different life realities. CHICKS* question social images of gender, sexuality and power. In their performances they combine interactive and installative encounter formats with a visual theatre of objects and atmospheres.
Freischwimmen project:
CHICKS* freies performancekollektiv invites you to the CHICKS* prom night! Welcome, would you like to dance with me?
CHICKS* prom night is a feminist couples’ dance event, performative prom, queer standard dance course, power-critical discussion format in dance and the future utopia of the dance event.
In the development of the piece CHICKS* deals with the (de-)construction of heteronormative, pop-cultural ways of presenting heterosexual white (love) couples dancing.
Statement:
FREISCHWIMMEN gave us the opportunity to feel at home in the independent performing arts. Regular dialogue with other artists and venues regarding working methods and structures served to strengthen and support us – culturally, politically, in our artistic practice, and also on a personal level. FREISCHWIMMEN was a space for critique and learning, and one that we would not want to be without.
