• Anouk van Mil, Set design for theatre play SLUT

SLUT: the play

For the Dutch adaptation of the theatre play SLUT: the play Anouk created a video screen installation on stage. It displayed a nonstop overload of found (social) media footage: ranging from tweets, news headliners, gifs, historical images, funny and not so funny memes on feminism, womanhood, freedom, autonomy, sexuality and #metoo. SLUT: the play, by Katie Cappiello tells a personal story about sexual harassment, based on different perspectives. On one side that of Joey, 'the victim'. And on the other that of ‘the many’, the people around her - more and less close - involved. So many people, so many opinions. And each of them bases that opinion on the information known or available to them. Information as was seen on stage, in a loop that was evenly entertaining, engaging as enraging to the audience.
