Choreography & Performance: Peaches, Mad Kate, Adrienne Teicher, Federica Dauri, Danilo Andres, Martini Cherry Furter, Lori Baldwin, Ginger Synne, Bishop Black
Clusterfuck, a 9-piece movement collective, emerged in 2019 in collaboration with the singer and queer-feminist pop-icon, Peaches. Together they explore the limits of the self and what happens in somatic interaction when the individual merges with the collective. Serving as a choreographic complement to the sex-positive, punchy work of Peaches, Clusterfuck’s vocabulary ranges from rhythmic to sensual to amoeba-like. Their inspiration draws from classical, avant-garde, and popular forms, including the work of Busby Berkeley, the Greek chorus, synchronized swimming, and proximity and repulsion, manifesting Clusterfuck’s recurring image of bodies congealing into a slow-moving collective blob.
In November 2022, they came together for “Clusterfuck Fundamentals,” a month-long residency funded by the FONDS DAKU Process Funding at Callie’s in Berlin.
