This performance is the first part of a project called »Sleeping Beauties/Ultra Sexy Amazons«, in which I will steal the identities of six female icons: Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Cinderella, Ripley, Catwoman and Mystic. These six characters are for me like many possibilities of self-fiction, in order to emphasize the idea of a fluid identity.»Sleeping Beauties« is a reading of the two fairy tales »Sleeping Beauty« and »Snow White«, »Snow White« becoming a kind of erotic dream of Sleeping Beauty. If »Sleeping Beauties« is a counter-production to the image of passivity of these two icons, it also takes a look at hate in relation to sexual identity.
