The following description comes from the event organizer.
Shame is a toy house you get from your mother. Going inside it teaches you the limits of your body-—it shrinks you and folds you in on yourself. Your cheeks flush, you start feeling small, stomach and anus tighten as you attune to the curvature of yourself.* Upon stepping outside of the house and into the colony square, you find everyone’s gossip on offer, your body expanding beyond its physical bounds and into others’ eyes. They peek into your shame and you peek into theirs.Bioscope is a traveling video sculpture that incorporates recorded personal interviews, familial theatrics, snippets of Bollywood movies, and performances about the meat and contours of shame.
