Dixon Place Presents A La Lucha Arts Production PORNING THE PLANET
1st installment of a sextrilogy. Butoh dance meets narrative text - A multi-media performance
As NASA chooses her for the making of the film Porning the Planet, Sensora attempts to answer multiple personality disorder through the building of a porn persona. On her way to meet Hugh Hiefner, our savior Sensora's journey follows her from glam porn star to snuff assassinated President; to finally as a refugee in outer space, launching into the galaxy. Sensora's metamorphosis challenges our notion of how pornography has altered our methods of how we communicate and connect with each other and our own consciousness our creation of a "De-Sensitized Nation".
This piece is part of the anti "female chauvinist pig movement", influenced by the book with the same title by Ariel Levi and the books of scholar Jane Caputi. For the last ten years I've worked with ethnically marginalized women in the sex industry, prisons and schools. Demanding a political process; research and public art presentations. I am now armed to face the ultimate challenge of embracing /unearthing pornography in all its forms.
