Joëlle Valterio writes after two performances by Manmeet Devgun and Natascha Moschini on sunday 07.06.2015 in the series of «unwrap the present» at Progr Berne.
Manmeet Devgun–Not an exclusive space, Manmeet said. So we are at a bus stop. Waiting for no bus, for nothing and no one. Her child is sitting quietly next to me.Manmeet is dressed in white and red. Swiss flagged, I think. Innocence and blood. Emergency. Now here. Coca cola colours coloured glass bottle hanging from her crotch in a stocking. Rolling and sounding and rolling and sounding on the ground. Glass on stone. Not breaking. Manmeet is reading and repeating, bouncing the glass bottle around, reading and repeating. Be a good girl, my mother said. Be a good girl. What a prick. What a prick. What a prick. Manmeet is dressed in white and red. Swiss flagged, I think. Innocence and blood.Not an exclusive space, Manmeet said. So we are at a bus stop. Waiting for no bus, for nothing and no one. Her child is sitting quietly next to me.–
Natascha Moschini–Licht? Licht! Licht… Halb Fuss und halb Kopf und halb Frucht taucht die Frau mit slash lashes unschuldig from inutero into ultrasound fur. Zwischen den Knien zwitschern und quietschen die peachy peachy peachy peachy peaches. Scrubbing the floor under the juice box – sticky music and bikini line lines anyway.–
