A group of gay male bodies has gathered in a room. They span different ages, but they are all aging – constantly, minute by minute.
Always older – until time halts
How does it feel?
What does it mean?
The bodies are beautiful, the bodies are ugly, the bodies are sturdy, the bodies are weak. Bright sun gliding across the sky, skin pulling towards the earth;
Is this a birthday?
~
With Turning Vinegar into Wine, ULF kompani moves into the materiality of skin, the aging gay body, and the specific gay experience of aging.
