"I am not here for your entertainment."

What does it mean to be a woman? What happens when we question our role models and stereotypes, rediscover everything supposedly "beautiful", "ugly" or "inappropriate" about the female body?

 

In the area of tension between society and the individual, a space of conflict is illuminated in which values, role models and expectations regarding being a woman clash and are negotiated. Emerging from a feminist perspective, Fragmentme describes a journey of reclaiming women's self-determination over their bodies and an act of liberation from imposed judgments.

 

Fragmentme invites viewers into the experiential world of the performer. Her dance is a strong expression of inner feeling evoked by memories and experiences from which she increasingly emancipates herself, thus experiencing a transformation to the point of dissolving limitation and complete self-determination.
