Synopsis

Conceptual video based on Oksana Chepelyk's performance realised in Kyiv at the Cultural Center of Deaf-Mute People researches the physical endurance degree of social body. Work is focusing on cultural transformations and communication. If gesture of deaf--mute has an informational capacity, the absurdity of collective gesture is transformed into existential metaphor. The video researches personal physical and political boundaries marked by rituals such as the parades, gymnastic pyramids and traditions. It is a reverberation between an exile and belonging; the work with disabilities people underlines this idea. Project is dealing with utopia of communication and lack of voice in collective Chorus.
