Gergő D. Farkas

Deep Fake

Budapest

A lonely hybrid, part human, part avatar, moves to eerie music. Between virtual and authentic reality, the figure enters into a delicate relationship with a metal grid. The contours of the living become blurred in this strange, flickering environment. What is real? What is fake? In a world characterised by TikTok videos and AI-generated deep fakes, what is real at all? Choreographer Gergő D. Farkas explores these questions with almost unbearably light movements and a touch of irony. «Deep Fake» is a black-humoured and melancholic swan song to the end of the anthropocene. (sst)

Simple words

A lonely creature moves to eerie music.

It dances with a metal grid.


We don't know if it is a person or a figure from another world.

What is actually real?

With the internet and TikTok, we sometimes no longer know which is which.

That's what this dance evening is about.
