Véra (&) Léon devour all the living forms we ingest, exploring the porosity between sensuality and voracity with devilish humour and angelic magic. The installation Je passerai par ta bouche (I will pass through your mouth) will be on display throughout the festival at the Théâtre des Riches-Claires.

Did you know that the urge to devour a kitten or a lover is a scientific phenomenon, defined by the concept of cute aggression? Have you ever discovered the secret that lies beneath the tablecloth of our appetites, from childhood to adulthood? If someone whispers “I’ll go through your mouth”, does it sound like a fantasy, a threat, a desire? You’ll find the answers to all your questions… if you put your ear to the ground. In this installation that cooks the flesh of words at a high temperature, the duo véra (&) léon take a bite out of all the living forms we ingest. As a starter or dessert, this feast of words and desires crosses the threshold that feeds our bodies. Blending black humour and white magic, it conjures up oral emotions that combine the flavours of eroticism and violence, sensuality and voracity, greedy pleasure and devouring predation.

Véra (&) léon, n.pl
Véra (&) léon, n.pl: imaginary duo that plays with the factitious construction of gender and artist. In real life, Véra Léon is always on the fence, treating textually transmissible diseases in the Drôme and on the road. Her concerts, installations and performances create utopian spaces that seek to link inner revolts with collective tumults. Sensitive politics - love
