CORPSE HALO
Ivan Cheng with Julia Reidy and Alexander IezziSTRP x JJJNNN
03-04-2020
This show consists of 2 episodes:
A two part radio play on delusion and allegiance by Ivan Cheng, which features the voices and sounds of 12 string guitarist Julia Reidy and artist Alexander Iezzi. They read as Honey (Cheng), Paris (Reidy) and Kerry (Iezzi), with Kerry voicing stage instructions for the performance - titled MARKET HALO [winky’s hagiography] that Cheng and Reidy would have executed in a chapel at JJJNNN x STRP Festival in Eindhoven. With a text that continually defers and reframes value as belief system, they weave an elliptical meditation of being in and out of time.
This piece was part of a STRP Festival programme titled Body/Head, curated by Arif Kornweitz and Femke Dekker. You may find the full four hour show Body/Head in our archive.
