premiere: 8 October 2016, Art Stations Foundation, Poznań

performers: Agata Siniarska, Madalina Dan
video, sound: Diego Agulló
dramaturgy: Siegmar Zacharias, Mila Pavicevic

Imagine a near future where all the humanity is gone and the single existing beings are two artificial intelligences called Fembot A.E. and Ubiquity. Tirelessly crying over their long-gone countries, Poland and Rumania, one day they decide to establish their own state whose territory and female powers will be unlimited. This project is about practising crying in a performative situation and studying phenomenology of tears. It touches upon a number of subjects, such as memory, history, death, happiness, fragility, innocence, strength or futuristic ontologies.
