Two women with open, tightly curled hair stand close to each other, one with her back to the camera, the other frontally, warmly lit. They hold their heads close together, touching each other's legs with their hands.

Bruta

The word »lounge« is both verb and noun: an action of sitting or lying down in a relaxed manner, or a public space where one can relax. This dual nature of relaxation is the focus of this duet for two bodies identifying as female. Together they move through states of active and passive rest, using each other’s presence to delve deeper into the vibe and into themselves. Heavily influenced by dance genres and sonic textures from the African diaspora living in Lisbon, Marga Alfeirão seeks active assertions of femininity by creating space for lesbian sensualities.

Two women with afro are sitting on the floor. The woman on the left is bent forward while the woman on the right leans back. Both women look affectionately at each other.

The stage is illuminated with a blue light. On the floor two black women are sitting in each other's arms. Both look at each other intensely.

A black woman with an Afro is lying on the floor. Her legs are bent and her arms stretched out to the side - her mouth is wide open. A black woman leans over her and spits her bodily fluids into the mouth of the lying woman.

A black woman sitting on the floor with her legs spread leans backwards. Above her face is a black woman spreading her genitals in her face.

A black woman with an afro sitting on the floor leans back lasciviously while putting her finger in her mouth.
