PROJECT F

Saint Hildegard Von Bingen was a great mystic, writer, naturalist scientist, doctor, polymath and music composer, attracting countless disciples though her detailed visions, while Princess Nokia is a fiercely independent female rapper and mystic with radical intersectional feminist agenda and a burgeoning following –  a kind of contemporary urban saint. Though 1,000 years apart, their enlightened and visionary thinking provides a springboard to explore and investigate the powers that incite us to project ourselves into a feminist utopian future.

PROJECT F is created with an all-female team (choreographer, performers, composer, designers, producer, dramaturg etc.) to illuminate outstanding achievements by Melbournian women. The team are diverse in age and background, yet all with feminist concerns and a strong aspiration to present positive and powerful female role models for broad audiences. At the heart of this investigation is the shared experience of the human body from an explicitly female perspective and celebrated through the female body.
