Performance ‘I woke up a sweaty human’ by Dalia Khalife
NIKA Project Space
In this performance, multidisciplinary artist and performer Dalia Khalife sets her physical movements to the backdrop of her life size digital avatars, raising questions on the boundaries and the liminal spaces between the human form and technology.
Dalia Khalife (b. 1992) is a Beirut based artist. Her practice examines psychophysiological happenings as well as elements of spectacle and play within power structures, social events, and rituals, that manifest as primitive moments of ambiguity and shared vulnerability. Sometimes raw, unexpected humor and absurdist sensibilities appear. Throughout the work, the unpredictability that derives from collaborations with artists and individuals are an essential part of the work.
