Hips Don’t Lie, EVAKUIEREN—Künstlerhaus Mousonturm, Frankfurt
With
Aetschy, Roland Brammer, Fausto Israel, Merel Roozen, Emmilou Rößling and Marcus Schill
Developed in collaboration between Camilo Godoy and Carlos Motta,
Hips Don’t Lie was
a performative intervention on the streets of Frankfurt aimed at challenging public assumptions of gender roles by presenting a silent group choreography based on Shakira's song "Hips Don’t Lie." The piece rendered visible the ways in which binary gender norms define social interactions in public space and confronted the public with questions—abstract and concrete—about non-normative gender expressions.
The event was presented by
Künstlerhaus Mousonturm, Frankfurt as part of
EVAKUIEREN, a project curated by Akira Takayama.
