Boychild

Boychild - en performanceartist av de sjeldne!
Jeg begynte å følge boychild på Instagram for rundt et års tid siden. Jeg kan ikke hjelpe på fascinasjonen som vokste - hvem er dette? Hva er dette? Dette er å ta androgynitet til et helt nytt nivå.
Men hvem er boychild?
Hun er fra California, og fikk en pangstart på karrieren for rundt to år siden, da hun fremførte som dragartist i San Fransisco. Men dette er langt mer en drag. Det er å forvrenge grensene, forandre oppfattelsen og å vise noe helt nytt. Når hun danser så forsvinner hun inn i sin egen verden.
Det kan heller ikke kalles dans. Det er kunst.
"This character has been brewing my whole life, —it’s an outlet for expression. I go somewhere else when I’m performing."
“The act of performing feels like when you’re coming off mushrooms: you’re burned-out, but also very at peace. You’re somewhere outside yourself. It’s like exhaling.”
" I have no idea what my performances look like. I know what they feel like. A lot of people get that feeling of an exorcism, a wildness. But a lot of times people have come to me and they’re very moved. People have come to me several times and told me that they cried. Sometimes there’s something very tender about it. It’s emotional."
"I’ve been brewing on this character my whole life. I realized that my paintings were always of this character—it’s basically the way I do my make-up now. I was looking at some of my older work and realized that recently. It’s called boychild, but it expresses itself in different ways."
