Sacrement

In Sacrement, the artist’s performance embodies a visceral exploration of breath as the primordial thread uniting ecstasy and creation, ritual and transcendence. Drawing from the raw immediacy of the female body as both temple and battlefield. The performance oscillates between the liminal terrain where pleasure and pain, life and death, virgin and mother, converge.

Breath becomes the sacral rhythm — the pulse that guides us through the intimate thresholds of both orgasm and birth. Each inhalation is a gathering of life force; each exhalation, a surrender into the abyss of becoming. In this charged continuum, the artist situates womanhood as 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 transcendence. Bleeding as a form of holy communion, reclaiming the narrative of the sacred away from patriarchal dogma and into the sovereign domain of the female body.

Sacrement positions the artist’s body and breath as both medium and message — a living altar upon which vulnerability and strength are laid bare.Through embodiment and presence, this performance situates the female form as a conduit between the terrestrial and the divine, the flesh and the infinite.

Through ritualized gestures and the elemental force of breath, the artist reanimates ancient feminine mysteries too often silenced or shamed. Sacrement is at once an invocation and a liberation — an ecstatic reclamation of woman as creator, vessel, and sacred threshold. In this intimate communion with breath and blood, the artist asks us to witness not only her vulnerability but the collective memory of women's visceral power, inscribed across each breath.
