NYXXX

imagetanz / brut Wien, Ankersaal/Ankerbrotfabrik


"In a world of post-xxx, what the heck does it mean to become an engineer of one’s own desire? Does erotic still have a chance? What has happened to catharsis? Lau Lukkarila investigates erotic through lived experience and the idea of an emotional body. NYXXX is inspired by the fierce character of Nyx, the Greek goddess of the Night. Accompanied by sentimental darkness, supportive underpants, discomforting arousals and a post- romantic nightfall, NYXXX proposes a lap(dog)dance for the night of the present day."
