19’ • 2018 • Belgium • dance, artist’s film
Behind closed doors, a woman with no face. Is she a witch ? A spider-woman, a goddess, a she-wolf or a carnivorous plant ? The Magma Chamber is a discourse without words, acry without voice, that tells us the violences and the ambivalences contained in the archetypes structuring female identity.
