The pandemic has brought challenges to many fields of life; a moment of togetherness is crucial for the performance art, which Johannes sees as a social art practice since it unfolds its true nature and force. The video work, “The Dance of the Receptors” by BBB Johannes Deimling, is part of the cycle titled “It Ain’t Over Until It’s Over”. It is a response to the restricted production process in the field of the performance art. The author combines the aspects of identity, aesthetics, humour and absurdity.
