In The CUD, Sîpan Sezgin Tekin shares the story of a wild mountain goat, the I-BEX. Wild mountain goats symbolise independence and the identity-less individual. Tekin uses this metaphor to explore the relationship between physical, biological conditions and identity.
About The CUD
The CUD forges a bridge between research presentation and lecture performance. The performance begins with a lecture about wild goat anatomy before telling the story of two goats who survive a genocide and settle in a modern city. There, they struggle to face the loss of their essence and natural habitat. As such, the mountain goat symbolises abstract freedom and the identity-less individual that rebels against the established norms of identity, border, nation, race, gender and colour. An attempt to question language, concepts and the politics they generate.
This performance is spoken in English.
