In Wild Woman, Princess descends into a mythical and physical underworld where identity, body and voice disintegrate - only to be rebuilt from there. Inspired by the figure of La Loba from Women Who Run With the Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Bone Woman gathers the lost bones and sings them back to life. Not as nostalgia, but as necessity: what is forgotten must be remembered again.
The performance starts from a break - with origins, with the mother body, with ancestral memory. From that emptiness, an intense journey of disintegration, confrontation and transformation unfolds. Wild Woman shows rebirth not as something gentle, but as a process of breakdown: a descent through chaos, anger and silence, in which the self is stripped to the bone.
Grounded in African spiritual traditions such as Vodun, and carried by a hybrid sound world of Afro-futurism, Afro-punk, metal and rap, it creates a ritual space where past, body and imagination converge. Live music, trance, physical exhaustion and visual projections draw the audience into an experience that is not just beheld, but undergone.
A collective confrontation with what was lost and what persists in the body. A poetic and raw search for voice, body and soul in times of inner and social crisis.
The Bone Collector is not a story about healing alone, but about what precedes it: breaking, remembering, and reassembling a self that was never fully gone.
