ABOUT THE P.png

Sex sells; this is well known. Come and indulge that promise of eroticism and naked bodies. And the thrill of watching a prostitute tell his most intimate stories in a staging that pulls no punches. Dance, performance, multimedia, and stand-up comedy combine in an intimate and unusual show to share a slice of the author's life with us.

Dominant economic systems have the ability to absorb resistance and reconfigure irregularities so that everything fulfills a function that sustains and legitimizes the "social order." Thus, art becomes just another object of consumption, and the needs it addresses are often more related to capital than to the sensible. In that sense, this work is no different. Project Sold* may be an experience through which we put our finger on the cracks that run through our understanding of the body, work, money, and art; but the truth is that we also want money.

We want to pay the rent, have an internet connection, free time to relax, travel, and socialize. We also want to maintain the privilege we have: dedicating ourselves to art.

"Money makes the dog dance," the saying goes. And although we dance here because we like it, because we can, and because we do it well, we also appreciate it when you give us your money anyway.
