Sacrement

In Sacrement, the artist embodies a visceral exploration of breath and ritual as the primordial thread uniting ecstasy, creation and transcendence. The female body emerging as both temple and battlefield. In this performance Lisa reimagines sacrifice and communion, reclaiming the sacred from patriarchal dogma and inscribing it instead into the sovereign domain of the female form and ritual.

In a culture where sexuality and motherhood is severed, this piece insists on returning to the female body as a sacred site of strength and transcendence. Where each breath connects and blurs the audience between a waterfall of desperation, pain, ectasy, hope, suffering and ease, ultimately collapsing the false divide between the erotic and the sacred. A woman’s bleeding becomes communion, breath becomes prayer, and erotic expression becomes an ancient site of transformation, where fertility and sexuality are not merely biological functions but sacred rites of passage.

Referencing the potent iconography of Christian stigmata, the artist bleeds from her nipples and vagina in a ritualistic gesture echoing crucifixion wounds — a haunting reimagining of a woman’s forced sacrifice through society’s rejection of the mother no longer being the virgin and therefore no longer sexual. Here, the stigmata do not signify martyrdom alone but the profound power and resilence embedded in both the feminine suffering and collective shame.
