Tunnel Tunnel is pleased to invite you to the first opening of the season:

Guérillères et nécessité d’excès

‘It’s only an illusion, but I get chills thinking about it: this sensation of holding someone else’s beating heart in the palm of my hand. The first time it happened to me, I was high and following the concise instructions of a totally depraved faggot who was convinced that it would be hilarious to see my face when I putting my whole hand up his asshole.’ Pat Califia, Sluts in Utopia: The Future of Radical Sex

Tunnel Tunnel invites the young performer Clara Saito for our first exhibition after the summer break. Born in 1988 in Brazil, Clara spent her youth in Yverdon-les-Bains (CH/NL/BR) and recently graduated from the School for New Dance Development (SNDO) in Amsterdam. As a dancer, she decided to focus on ways to break down the conceptions she had acquired in this practice, to question the body and mind in the act of dancing. Apart from her work with choreographers, she explores and observes group behavior through the prisms of violence, revolution, and entertainment. She is also known for performing as ‘Kurt Dickriot’, her alter ego in the Amsterdam queer scene. For her intervention at Tunnel Tunnel, she will present a series of films from her work entitled ‘Diva’, in which she radically put herself in the skin of a dog for thirty days. 

The association Les Indociles aims to fight against various forms of discrimination and to address crucial social issues through cultural events and political actions. Tunnel Tunnel invites them to freely explore the space for a revisited conference that will echo the performances of Clara Saito. With Hélène Bessero, Djemila Carron, Julia Taramarcaz, Emilie Bender, Eleonore Varone.
