Rocio Boliver on pain and performance

Why pain in my performances?

Physical pain might be easy to understand, but psychological pain on the other hand remains a mystery to both medical and spiritual minds. I’ve gone through several depressions in my life, and almost no one has understood why I’ve been suffering from infinite sadness and excruciating emotional pain, because apparently I don’t have any “disease”. From age 12 to 15, I had a kidney disease that obliged me to be in bed most of the time. My life was closely associated with hospitals, painful tests, injections, blood, urine, excrement/ feces, chemical tests, etc…

The pain was profound, but strangely enough I began to experience my sensuality in the tenderness of the doctors and male nurses thus leading me to reach a sexual awakening. The medical crew gave me affection and physical stimulation while examining me, carrying me to bed, drawing blood from me, etc. I felt as if they where my protectors.

In my art work, PAIN is primarily associated with loss of consciousness and a thirst or need to be cared for and cured, associated with male approach.
In each piece I demonstrate my psychological pain, pain of the soul.
In short, most of my performances speak of emotional loss. It’s through them I can show and relief this pain, this unstoppable grief, make it my own so I can mourn and digest it.

It is my belief that society doesn’t understand the magnitude of emotional pain. Madness is taboo, so it is better or more acceptable to be sick with something tangible.

As a child I couldn’t explain my sadness and got mad when nobody seemed to understand me. My parents and doctors were always worried about my bodily disease but never considered my pain to be beyond physical explanations, which lead me to show it in the physical form, because emotional pain is ultimately more disturbing for its imminence.

At the end of my performances, I am usually plagued by a throbbing episode of uncontrollable crying. It is a catharsis. Feeling physical pain and sublimate it into a performance is my way of healing my emotional wounds.

About Natacha Merritt

Natacha Merritt (b. 1977, San Francisco) is an artist, writer and biologist. At age 20, her intimate and explicit series of portraits and self-portraits documenting her sexual history caused a sensation when she published them on her website www.digitalgirly.com. Her first book, Digital-Diaries (2000, Taschen), an erotic exploration at the dawn of the digital era, quickly became a critically acclaimed international best-seller, shifting over 300,000 copies and being featured in publications as diverse as The Observer, Playboy, The Wall Street Journal and Rolling Stone.

Following the spectacular success of the book, Merritt embarked on a series of diverse art projects and high-profile collaborations. She spoke at conferences as diverse as Ars Electronica on Next Sex: Sex in the Age of Procreative Superfluousness or the design conference AGideas (Melbourne, Australia). In 2000 she starred, shot and edited D-life (heralded as one of the first Internet reality miniseries) with two fellow artists, in collaboration with Heavy.com (later picked up by Warner Bros). From 2003-2004, Merritt was invited to be one of the creators for the Cirque du Soleil show Zumanity (NYNY Hotel and Casino), an exploration of sensuality and peak human performance, for which she created large-scale multimedia projections from erotic images she had captured of the performers.

Esta señora reviolucionó internet allá por el año 2000 con las explícitas imágenes de sus encuentros sexuales que colgaba on line. Desde entonces ha hecho muchas cosillas, pero su último lío es la publicación de un libro titulado Sexual Selection y que va de biología y sexo. Yo quiero leerlo. Se pone a la venta en mayo y se puede hacer una pre-order aquí.…

Postporno en Buenos Aires

El posporno hunde las raíces de su casi secreta historia en los feminismos radicales y los movimientos punk de los 70, las performances, los happenings, las vanguardias del video y las cinematográficas de los 20. El fin de siglo con sus cámaras baratas, sus software de edición, el porno amateur e internet, como medio privilegiado para la diversificación icónica, terminan de dar el sabor de un cóctel todavía algo exótico. Queremos ver qué está sucediendo en estos campos de experimentación formal, que damos en llamar posporno, en el contexto argentino y latinoamericano.
