JEANNE OF THE DARK

CD, released in 2011

for 4 performers, performed by Bakin Zub 49 minutes


Jeanne of the Dark is an exploration of the image of the Vamp. Rather than tell a story, Marko Ciciliani has created an unconventional artwork that derives its imagery and its sound world from a range of reference points transgressing stylistic and cultural boundaries, from vampire movies to eroticism, from heavy metal to cannibalism. The stereotype of the vamp – the seductive but dangerous woman, man-eater, femme fatale, inseparable from the dualistic male view of the female as virgin/whore – is teased out and recontextualised, and a consuming process of attraction and repulsion is set in motion for the listener/viewer.
