Raymond Liew Jin Pin: Solotus - Lotus Fight Club

In the organizer's words:

Dance solo as part of SOLO - Festival for artistic solo efforts

Information about the event:

"Solotus" is a solo version of Raymond Liew Jin Pin's piece "Lotus Fight Club". In it, Raymond refers to a sodomy law from the colonial era that is still in use in Malaysia today and provides for corporal punishment by flogging. He confronts the local political and religious restrictions, taboos and censorship from his outside perspective as a gay immigrant in Germany.

"Solotus" invites you to follow Raymond on a tightrope walk between violence and pleasure, punishment and joy. Through the re-enactment of traditional dances such as the Chinese ribbon dance, symbols and movements are placed in a new light, in which ribbons become whips and lashes are full of pleasure. As a ritual of resilience and healing, the whip dance itself becomes an act of rebellion.
