Kulla-Gulla, Fassbinder and I : Kjersti Vetterstad

KULLA-GULLA, FASSBINDER AND I

Arena Baubo is exploring the dance that emerges when we are unable to take responsibility for our own emotions.

Kulla-Gulla, Fassbinder and I is an installation consisting of a network of performative actions. Deconstructed and rotating power structures form a series of dysfunctional situations. We become
co-dependent on the drug addict, the bun-baking mother, Fassbinder, Kulla-Gulla, the emotionally vulnerable, the psychopath, the starving child, the audience and the lonely artist. We take the role of the hero, the victim or the persecutor and prescribe another role on the ones we are relating to. Then we swap.
Searching for situations where the roles become inevitable we await the spectators' positions in the triangle. Then the dance begins.

A nordic collaboration between Kjersti Vetterstad, Outi Condit, Maria Stiernborg, Kajsa Wadhia, Katja Seitajoki and Lina Benneth initiated by Arena Baubo.
