About Mette Sterre
“A Circuit of Overthinking - A Circus of IT Girls”
2018
1 hour long performance Kunstverein in Hamburg as part of
their “Staging Realities Performance Festival” at the Kunstverein
in Hamburg curated by Tobias Peper.
Staging a DIY punk feminist operette at the Kunstverein
in Hamburg posing the questions to the role of IT Girls
in past, present and future society with theatrical and artistic means.
In particular, a contemporary feminist view came to the fore here.
For A Circuit of Overthinking - A Circus of IT Girls,
I invited female identifying artists and performers to explore the notion of the IT girl.
The performance explored the position of women in society,
the male and female gaze, and changing morality in
an ever-changing landscape shaped by digital culture,
politics of fear, and the role of the physical body and the self.
The notion of the IT Girl is interwoven with ideas of consumption,
identity, privilege, glamour, individualisation, status, decline, ageing,
the constructed notions of femininity and sexuality and information technology.
With the group of women consisting of friends, colleagues and my mother,
we discussed, debated and devised as a community the content of the
show through play, writing exercises and theme based discussions
in several gatherings.
I designed the costumes based on the persona my fellow performers
would want to become as a true IT girl, such as the Internet Troll
(IT-> information technology), the Baglady, Synergy, the Golden Warrior Diva,
Long Tongue Sally, EVE, Kali the Destructor, Pink Blobfishwife and Big Crybaby.
Collaborators Agnes Momirski, Genevieve Giuffre, Liesbeth Klaver, Diana Roig,
Nikki Ootjers, Erin Tasmania, Mette Sterre
