In "AREYOUARE" performer Silke Grabinger is surrounded by robots. Three robot vacuum cleaners, a kitchen robot, and a robot dog interact not only with her as the only person, but also with each other in unpredictable ways. While the work is being done, a re-exploration of boundaries takes place, reminiscent of Carolee Schneemann's performance "Up to and including her Limits" and Martha Roslers performance "Semiotics of the Kitchen". In the tension between rear projections, hyperfeminism, and hybridization, these boundaries are measured and exaggerated.
