What is trouble? Genealogy of trouble has everything to do with mechanisms of power. A subject with power and agency – is the one who is aware of the mechanisms and the distribution of power. But how does the body trouble the norm? How do norms move and freeze bodies? How does the body contain internal and external injuries, broken heart, misgendering, shaming, belittling, anxiety, being broke or lost, sexual harassment, homophobia, violence, pain, fear of ageing and dying?
Lau Lukkarila is a queer interdisciplinary performance artist born in Finland and currently based in Vienna. They are a dancer and a cultural labourer who cherishes fluidity and puts themselves in a productive “oppositional standpoint” considering stereotypical ideas about normalcy.
