RAW/FLESH/FORM

is a hybrid performance work by e.Trash that merges electronic music, bodily presence, and scenographic tension into a visceral, immersive experience. Developed as both a test phase and artistic turning point, the performance explores how sound, body, and space can co-exist to create a unified sensory expression.

At its core, RAW/FLESH/FORM investigates the body not just as a performer, but as a resonating chamber - a listening, sensing, reacting entity in direct dialogue with sound. Rather than generating sound through movement, the performer allows sound to act as a choreographic force: loops, distortions, and rhythmic pressure shape movement in real time. This creates a feedback loop of sound and sensation where choreography becomes a living response to the sonic material.

The text universe draws on “cute-punk” aesthetics - a mixture of vulnerability, irony, and internet-born emotional directness. Fragmented one-liners like “i wanna drown in glitter and spit” and “error 404: feelings not found” function as affective signals, inviting recognition, reflection, and shared sentiment across a fragmented generation. These emotional snapshots echo the tonalities of post-internet culture, shaping both tone and identity within the performance.

Featuring a close collaboration with performer and musician Mathilde Savery and co-produced with Victor Willaredt, the piece was created through improvisational and intuitive processes rooted in bodily response, collective creation, and genre fluidity.

RAW/FLESH/FORM marks a pivotal development in the e.Trash project - not as an endpoint, but as the emergence of a hybrid performance identity: where live music, choreography, scenography, raw punk energy and the club-intensity converge.

RAW/FLESH/FORM in the Panopticon of Vridsløselille Jail

Set within the haunting architecture of Panoptikonnet in Vridsløselille Fængsel, the work transforms the venue’s circular, carceral structure into a performative field of sound, distortion, and light. Using strobe lighting, spatial displacements, and a sonic palette that fuses raw punk energy, club-intensity, and abstract textures, the piece evokes a bodily, desorienting immersion between isolation and ecstasy.

RAW/FLESH/FORM in BASEMENT

Set within the raw, industrial confines of BASEMENT at Enghave Plads, the performance reconfigures the space’s low ceilings, concrete textures, and underground atmosphere into a pressure-cooked zone of sonic and bodily intensity. The club-like architecture becomes a container for distortion, light, and sweat — where strobe pulses and heavy frequencies collapse the distance between performer and audience. In this dense, intimate setting, RAW/FLESH/FORM unfolds as a claustrophobic yet magnetic experience, blurring the lines between concert, ritual, and emotional overload.
