Stranger in the Body create immersive performances that merge ancient and contemporary influences, blending post-punk music with elements from the Book of the Dead and mysticism. Their concerts juxtapose and reconstruct analogue and electronic sounds, paired with lyrics and poems inspired by Middle Eastern myths and European literature. The performances are ritualistic, channelling entities of the past through music, materials, and words. Figures narrate stories about the physical body’s unsettling experiences within society. These stories delve into themes of desire, identity, and sexuality, inviting the audience to explore the complexities and concept of bodies. Their performance unfolds like a stream of consciousness, using imagery and songs to explore the fluidity of the body and its connection to dreams and water, dissolving the boundaries between past and present, myth and reality.
