Welcome to Wetland, a wet queer space that liquifies supposedly solid assumptions, mindsets, and categories. On a prepared, watered stage floor, the performers enter into a slippery dialogue with their permeable bodies. Wetland is a humid area that does not only manifest as a metaphorical-political space, but rather emerges on stage as a material-real space in which binary structures seep away as if in a swamp.
