How Do You Like your Pink?
"How Do You Like Your Pink?" delves into the complex experiences of women in today's society, focusing on how conditioning shapes their behaviors, beliefs, and perceptions through repeated experiences and influences, often starting from a young age.
Conditioning refers to the process of learning specific behaviors, beliefs, and reactions through repeated exposure and reinforcement. From an early age, girls are often conditioned to adhere to certain gender roles through toys, media, and societal expectations. This conditioning extends to various aspects of life, such as gender roles, body image, behavioral expectations, career choices, media representation, authority influence, violence and harassment.
The four female performers, who are in different decades and phases of their lives, compose the work through together, drawing inspiration from classical fairytales, social stereotypes and phenomena, personal and collective archives, memories, the scourge of gender-based violence but also through contemporary literature and popular Greek songs.
Approaching dance as a holistic art form, they explore and experiment in a fluid conceptual framework, drawing and creating material from different art fields such as movement, writing and sound, which in combination with the scenography and costume choices constitute a utopian and at the same time bittersweet "world", highlighting the complexity of the female experience in modern society.
