Mirko Borscht/Volkan T.
Works
2017, Durational Performance
Volkan T. and Mirko Borscht are children of the 80s. Socialized by (sub)cultural and social demarcation, unconditional individuality and autonomy, they find themselves today in a climate of communities, networks and marriages of convenience, which are still to be resisted. Defiantly and strictly ambivalent, they have set up a five-day ordeal for themselves: cut off from the outside world, they question their unsuitable-for-the-majority, heterosexual white carcasses – made up of low-tech and forgotten aesthetic principles – about their original, identity-conferring de-ath-integration.
