(W/HOLE)

Seated around a table, 7 performers sumptuously describe eating the food in front of them before devouring it, and each other.


(W/HOLE) Episode 8:
FEAST

Runtime: 13:41

Parts Authority, Trouble Clef, Papi Femme, Special Guest, Shay Knox, the Shape and Evie Snax pass around a bottle of wine as they discuss the smells, tastes and textures laid out before them. Clef takes a bite, and the desire hangs in the air for just a moment, before the other six dive in to fill their hands, mouths and stomachs. Snax crawls onto the table, becoming the feast as Knox dives down to eat her cunt and her ass. Papi and Parts feed and grope the writhing Snax as she cums into Knox’s mouth.

(W/HOLE) explores the incredible potency of queer hedonism, specifically how the authentic performativity of kink and queer porn can evolve trauma into orgasm, and grief into politically radical, transformative, body-based joy. (W/HOLE) investigates the complexity of pleasure, exploring the so-called obscenity of bodies in their most tremendous capacity—their glorious, illicit humanity. Amidst ecstatic water balloon fights, opulent feasts devoured without utensils, narrations of pleasure, lewd hand gestures, densely scored orgies, improvisational performance, and intense kink dynamics, (W/HOLE) proposes a new type of pornography: a world of queer sex that is at once surreally lush and intensely real.

(W/HOLE) was commissioned by the Invisible Dog Art Center and premiered there in January 2019. Comprised of 18 scenes and two additional bonus scenes, this film explores queer pleasure by colliding explicit queer porn, performance art, and dance together create an altogether unique form.
