mater suspiriorum ( in reference to the 2019 horror movie “Suspiria”) is the attempt of artistic layout and alter ego of Jolanda Helena Resch. As a stage name and as a concept the “mother of sighs” allows a space of comfort, grief and the monstrous sapphic feminine. The artistic practice is informed by failure, questioning, despair, resilience to trauma and the body as a body of evidence. In the form of a collage the mother asks for the political in the personal and looks for an immersive, affective performance that conjures strong images of ambiguous meaning. A trans feminine body on stage is a place of projection and fantasy, fulfilments and horror. I'm only a woman if woman is a word.
(Empress of) My god it's a lot. (Aurora)

REY, also known as El Maricón, is a sensual Vienna based drag artist and showhoe amongst many things. He likes to create alluring landscapes that take the audience on a journey from sweet, wet honeycomb embraces to dramatic kitsch, to culminating in bloody horror clown core. Always sharp in their observations with a love for provocative truths: you might even jerk off to this text later the same way Karen’s husband fucks me in the dark then stares me down in the streets. As part of the Kiki House of Dive and KISSEN they’re also passionate about crafting DIY club culture events underlined as political spaces.
