The second in a trilogy of very special performance evenings happening during Creamcake’s 3hd, “Switching Sides” thrives on live-ness. Extreme physical experiences, provocation and confrontation, harsh gestures and intense, perturbing moments are all presented in countless ways by the artists gracing the shop floor of Park Center Treptow on October 9. Once a toy store for children, now an adult playground, the double entendre of the commercial building-come-festival headquarters for 3hd 2021: “Power Play” informs everything under its roof—from Celeste Burlina’s “The prayer of the faithful” scenography, inspired by rodeo rides and wrestling, to the “In Excess” group exhibition nestled inside. Much like a kinky Matryoshka doll, the events and activations will happen in this space-within-a-space (inside a much bigger space), creating its own ecosystem of bold expression and sexually progressive experimentation.
