The event is over
As in her film in the exhibition, in this performance the artist evokes her own experience and the concept of 'limerence' - falling in love with someone and crystallising an irrepressible and unrequited romantic feeling.
In the style of 1950s musicals, alternating between addressing the audience, intimate reflections on her life, excerpts from Hollywood films and covers of song standards, Marijke De Roover moves between melancholy, humour and a deeper reflection on the difficulty of relationships.
