Introduced by Peaches, screening followed by a Q&A with the artist.
NOP (2018, 91min) is a hybrid performance/documentary film that explores how ancestral data is stored in our bodies, impacting the lives we lead. On the personal level, the film investigates how the artist's complex family history compelled her to create the masked, erotic performance character Narcissister.
Narcissister is a Brooklyn-based artist and performer. She works at the intersection of performance, dance, art, and activism in a range of media including film, video art, and experimental music. She actively integrates her prior experience as a professional dancer and commercial artist with her art practice in a range of media including photography, video art, and experimental music.
The film is also being shown at Arsenal - Institut für Film und Videokunst e.V. on 10 April 2019.
