Detail from post-performance installation
Through the voice-over a diva dissects love and rants on the misunderstanding of what subjectivity means, as the performer cuts through red fruit and flowers and makes summer rolls of them. A fountain fills glasses with red liquid and two old tvs loop a video of hands touching things like jelly, flowers and containers of an old industrial hall, mixed with clips from a first person video game where enemies are killed by spraying perfume on them.
