Henrike Iglesias: I can be your hero Baby – Sophiensæle | Independent Theater in Berlin
Henrike Iglesias:
I can be your hero Baby
I can be your hero Baby
“I’m just a bit worried, because she has a great bust but she isn’t really that elegant.”
(Thomas Hayo,Germany’s Next Topmodel)
The sex industry and Heidi Klum’s “ModelSchool” – who does the female body really belong to? What does self-definition mean when trapped in this repressive ideal of beauty or considering a dire economic situation? Between brothel and runway, Henrike Iglesias examines the aspects of force and free will in the cosmos of the sexual and aesthetic service industry.
