Nevermore
Jennifer Greer Holmes with Teddy Dunn (AUS)
In Nevermore, a group of cross punks take aim at rapists through an exploration of how to incorporate comedy, fantasy and punk politics into an artistic response to sexual violence.
Jennifer Greer Holmes is a creative producer, a creative documenter and a curator of contemporary performance, music and live art. Teddy Dunn is a theatre director who works with playwrights, screen writers, devisors and directors with particular focus on queer and feminist dramaturgies.
In this collaboration they begin a process of interrogating in what way artists, and artists who are rape victims, can depict and explore not only the experience of sexual violation itself, but also revenge, rape jokes, and complex trauma.
