DAMAGED GOODS II
Three channel video installation by Harm Weistra & Eddi Bal - 2012 - 3'30 (excerpt 0'42)

Choreography and dance: Armando Roberto Disanto, Fernando Dominguez
Voices: John Doe, Jeremiah Fleming
Sound studio: World of Sound Amsterdam
Music: Machinefabriek - Droog Water

This installation takes Youtube hate comments against the gay community as its starting point, and addresses the suppression of minority groups.
By contrasting hate speech with the intimacy of two male dancers, the work aestheticizes hatred and invites the viewer to reflect or take position on an individual's right to exist.
