Queens of the Underworld
Earthly Delights
Earthly Delights is an immersive multidisciplinary performance event, installation piece and communal ritual, created, orchestrated and hosted by Oberon White and Laura Gwen Miles.
Red fruit oozes from open mouths
Beasts and creatures change form in the darkness
Together we feast in the hot, dark hole
Together we shall know, such
Earthly Delights.
Inspired by Bacchanalia and the imagery of Hieronymus Bosch's eponymous triptych, audiences are guests at a visceral feast, with a design incorporating natural material, found objects, sculpture and original film. Solo short-form performances from queer performance artists are interspersed with a live electronic score. Oberon White and Laura Gwen Miles preside over the rite and perform extended solo performances.
