About

FUNERAL ECSTASY – The Paradise – (EN) De Koepels Rotterdam, Persoonshaven 906-910, 3071 CL Rotterdam The Paradise marks the beginning of FUNERAL ECSTASY, a series questioning the conventional notions of endings. Can we accept the fact that everything lasts only for a limited period of time? The Paradise urges us to reflect on the impact of the cyclical nature of life. Is it a celebration, a guided meditation, or a rave for the end? The Paradise encourages heightened awareness of the present moment, emphasizing the value in each passing second. In a performative installation the audience is led through an ebb and flow, oscillating between darkness and light, intensity and tranquility; a collective experience, perceived individually. HipSick is a Rotterdam based interdisciplinary crew which operates at the intersection of performance and installation art. From a fascination with the fringes and night culture, HipSick explores and questions societal developments and normativity. The Paradise evolved through research presentations and co-creation with the audience.
