“I am dedicated to transgressing limits. I break conventional feminine schemes. My aesthetics are abject and grotesque, in search of severity.”
Rocio Boliver aka La Congelada de Uva (MX)
“For thirty years I have challenged the ideological framework imposed to shape the lives of women in their different stages of life. Through my work I have faced all the imposed feminine roles, including sexuality, eroticism, beauty, gender, age, love, morality, motherhood… You could say that my performances are true ‘shameful acts.’
Currently I fight against ageism. At 68 years old, I seek to demystify the ‘horror of old age’ by creating my own aesthetic and moral solutions.
Resonance is a performance piece that contains in one piece many of the concepts that I have handled independently.
What better than to immerse myself in forbidden, perverse, censored and marked themes; to make me strong against the path of time that leads me to the destruction of my vitality, my charm, my lucidity, my beauty, my strength.”
