MIRADONNA SIRKKA

Miradonna explores the boundaries between the stage and the audience in her performances, that often ponder (power)relationships, contact and empathy between humans. She wrote her master thesis on ”Awkwardness as a Tool in My Artistic Practice” – and that is a strong theme in her performances as well. Miradonna’s performances are often site-specific.

Miradonna rikkoo näyttämön ja katsomon välisiä rajoja performansseissaan. Performanssit käsittelevät ihmisten välistä kontaktia, empatiaa ja välillisesti valtasuhteita. Miradonnan gradun aihe oli “Kiusallisuus työvälineenä taiteellisessa työskentelyssäni”, joka näkyy performansseissa vahvasti. Performanssit ovat usein paikkasidonnaisia.
