Medium: 
Yellow sofa
Dimension: 
A sofa is a long upholstered seat with a back and arms, for two or more people. Its intended purpose is primarily for seating, but it may also be used for sleeping. The sofa’s function has slowly drifted from this definition. It has become a space of comfort, a space for being intimate. A safe space for some, a confrontational space for others. A peaceful space, a violent space. This performance explores the barriers between masculinity and femininity, sensuality and sexuality, vulnerability and resilience, all through the space of a sofa.
