When is a body female? Is there a male movement? And where - between recognition and ideal picture puzzles, between physical constitution and media transformation, between utopian designs and inscribed forms of behaviour - does the construction and deconstruction of role images and stereotypes take place? In her finely chiselled choreographic investigation Doris Stelzer explores the field of body presentation and body staging. She tracks down the supposedly female and male in the play with body poses and changing movement. The choreographer precisely analyses the media and physical (body) metamorphoses and in the process not only expose projection areas, patterns of perception and body politics, but in her search for an \"unoccupied\" body also offers a humorous view of our own preferences and aversions.
