Sophie Guisset
- Over-titling
In Endless Summer Camp, Sophie Guisset extends her research into spaces of freedom and unexpected alliances. Drawing on her personal experience within scouting, she adopts its framework and structure but only in order to subvert its codes.
Welcome to a utopian summer camp for adults only, where performers create a temporary troupe and together explore desire, transgression and joy. Just as in the woods back then, the aim is to use one’s imagination to invent, build and organize a space for play, and to become one with the group.
Here, vice, perversion and self-transcendence are not taboos, but sources of pleasure and pride. The scouting spirit – facing the unexpected with ingenuity, being attentive to the world around us – becomes the driving force behind an intimate and collective exploration of desire and sexuality, experienced with vulnerability, humour and sensitivity.
Endless Summer Camp invites us to rethink our relation to desire and to imagine, together, new relational scenarios … and under the sun.
