Throughout the Month of Performance Art, tamtamART presents the ‘Performance
Art-Lose weight exercise’. At the opening on March 7th, we’ll have video installation
and “lose weight exercise lesson” for the audience to join us
Lose weight exercise is a performance project. Description of HUNGER (not only from physiology, but also from psychology): a strong desire. At this time, both men and women, have a new standard for the “perfect shape” which is more stringent and more diversified. At some point, we even get stuck in morbid thoughts “hunger for hunger “. Therefore, we intend to mock this bizarre social phenomenon through this series of performance- Lose weight exercise.
減肥瘦身操是一個表演計畫：HUNGER在字義上，除了飢餓，還有擁有某種事物的渴望。此時，不論男女，對於身體的"完美塑型"，都有了更嚴苛，更多元化的標準，甚至達到"渴望飢餓-hunger for hunger"的病態念頭。因此在這一系列的表演行為裡，我企圖透過一場類似減肥瘦身操的詼諧動作，嘲諷這個怪異現象。現場裝置有巨型的塑身器材裝置，例如啞鈴、踏步機、大塑膠球，搭配兩段自編塑身操的錄像裝置。透過這些既熟悉又荒誕的塑身行為，如此充斥著詭異又病態的氛圍，試想提問， hunger已經變成了什麼？

Month of Performance Art is a new pilot project which aims to highlight the wealth
and diversity of independent performance art practices, currently thriving in Berlin.
Due in May 2011, MPA aspires to intersect Berlin-based venues, curators, producers
and artists who operate on the boundaries of institutionalised performing arts
structures, and thus to reflect the creative force injected by independent cultural
players into the city’s contemporary performance art scene.
