05. Body As Situation (lessons in movement)
Performance documentation that positions the body—real and imagined—as both site and situation. This "hyperfeminine" body, caught between subjecthood and objecthood, becomes emblematic of the blurred boundary between autonomy and aestheticized submission. The body, simulated, translated, and re-performed, becomes a placeholder for multiple contradictions: technological advancement and emotional latency, service and stasis, sensuality and system failure. Wojas does not seek to humanize the machine, but to expose the very mechanics by which humanness itself is constructed, collapsed, and redistributed across gendered, technological, and historical planes.
