Loving Characters Into Gas Station Snacks - Sara Ivanyi & Katink Van Gorkum
Loving Characters Into Gas Station Snacks - Sara Ivanyi & Katink Van Gorkum
In the early winter of 2019, Katinka van Gorkum and Sára Iványi met online after creating personal ads on a text-based dating app called Lex. Without knowing who the other person was or what they looked like, they started writing to each other on a daily basis. This exchange is presented here as a kind of un-edited textual performance in which the act of language functions under the most intense pressure—how can we perform our ‘selves’ only through the use of words? How do the negotiations of the early stages of friendship, romance, sexuality, hold up under these conditions? How does language itself?
