In what ways do public bathrooms for gay men and sperm bank booths for straight men constitute enclosed spaces for desire and excess? And in what ways can they be unfolded, turned inside-out, for new connections, flows and deregulations? Liquid Excess is concerned with partially invisible ecologies and economies of male fluids, and explores how sperm and piss as bodily substances are negotiated and transformed through noisy medical policies and social practices.
The show and its reciprocal manifestations ranged from sound works and (re)-constructed architectural models to large-scale film installations. Birt Berglund’s and Johan Sundell’s queer noise project (Homotopos) was rooted in unwanted desire as noise and excess, while Nils Agdler’s and Timo Menke’s film installation (Gifted Men) about Danish sperm donors inquired a highly wanted and scarce product.
The opening weekend featured a performance in public Gothenburg, followed by a donation performance in the exhibition space, and finally concluded by a conversation with sociologist Arne Nilsson, which was linked to the themes of queer desires and architecture, reproductive techniques and masculinity.
