Baubo is an obscure mythological figure associated with hybridity, magic and sexuality.
Baubo has turned up in rock drawings, bone figurines and stories since prehistoric times: female figures with accentuated vaginas and spread legs, usually in the company of fish, turtles, bulls and birds.
De Meyer composes a new text. Together with performers and visual artists, she stages a performance in which language and movement are intertwined.
