Creamcake_2
Creamcake returns to the pool, taking up residence across two Sunday afternoons. The Berlin-based interdisciplinary platform brings together artists whose works move across intimacy, embodiment, fiction, and sound. Each afternoon unfolds as a program of performance, live music, and DJ sets—set against the backdrop of an open-air public pool, where bodies gather, undress, and move.
On July 19, Barnett Cohen presents tactics of practice, created in collaboration with artist and composer Shamica Ruddock and dancer Sally Butin. The work is a collective summoning of the tension between withholding and reveal, pleasure and discord, space and place, emerging through the sustaining and slippage of sound and gesture over time. Underscored by nightlife stimuli, it interlaces landscapes of thought, wavelengths of mood, and the body in non-stop/stop motion into a performance of excess, constituted by erotics of force and aggression where expenditure extends beyond sonic and corporeal forms.
The afternoon also features a concert by Krista Papista, whose Euro Divas unfolds through and ceremonies for inhabiting many bodies, daring to rewrite biography with luxurious audacity, and a DJ set by Alma Lauer. Here, excess and spectacle spill from stage into water: the body as a site of invention, ceremony, and rave.
