The Creep at feldfünf is the first in a series of installations in which Berlin based choreographer and visual artist, Melanie Jame Wolf, will enact her ongoing creep studies. It is a prequel of creep textures in progress ahead of a large-scale version of the installation with a new moving image work at EWERK Luckenwalde in 2023.
The Creep is a choreography between 2 figures - a cowboy and a mountain - embodying a poetic meditation on violence and storytelling. Departing from Walter Benjamin's concept of 'mythic violence' - in which fascist power is accumulated and by performing itself as ancient and natural - The Creep studies the invisible and the insidious; forced silences, double meanings, and omissions; the weird and the eerie.
