About this edition
NORMAL returns to studio db as the second movement of OBJECTIFICATION, continuing a research that began in this space and now deepens its inquiry.
This edition explores objectification as a condition that shapes intimacy:
how bodies are framed, handled, exposed, or withdrawn;
how closeness is negotiated, regulated, or denied;
how intimacy persists, fractures, or transforms under these conditions.
Rather than rejecting objectification, we stay with it.
We observe how bodies become objects for others and for themselves, and how intimacy operates within these dynamics.
NORMAL unfolds as a collective, embodied investigation where intimacy is not assumed, but carefully negotiated through presence, attention, and shared responsibility.
What is Normies Study Group?
Normies Study Group is an ongoing collective research format exploring normality as a relational, embodied, and intimate condition. Through shared study, physical presence, and collective creation, the group develops performance and body-installation works where form emerges from togetherness rather than instruction.
This is not a workshop.
It is not therapy.
It is an experiment in co-existing, porous boundaries, and collective attention.
Who can apply?
We welcome anyone curious about embodiment, intimacy, collective research, performance, and shared space.
No previous performance experience is required—only the willingness to show up, to listen, and to engage responsibly with others.
Normies Study Group exists through difference.
We strongly encourage applications from people of diverse bodies, ages, ethnicities, genders, sexualities, abilities, and backgrounds.
Diversity is not an addition—it is a condition for the work to exist.
We can not pay anyone taking part in the studies, and we do t take any fee.for.participating 💞
