Lemmy B. is a perspective upheaval in self-definition, a radical decision in self-conception. Don’t wait, act.
An unforeseen subjectivity emerges and asserts the will to be a generative presence in a dominant system that adopts fear as a founding element within a meticulous, suffocating control scheme. The aesthetic and the political establish themselves reciprocally in the space inhabited by Lemmy B. and stimulate transformative practices through which the subject opens up to an undetermined becoming, training scores of awareness.
In an exposed scene, where the sonic dramaturgy is a constant gaze that leaves no escape, the body, as the sole device capable of reconfiguring power dynamics, subverts norms, explores pleasure niches, and constitutive alliances.
