The American performance artist Ann Liv Young assumes
the persona of Sherry Vignon and opens a hotel of a different kind at the Funkhaus: the Shotel. Sherry has also devised
her own Sherapy programme, so at the Funkhaus you can not only spend the night but be healed of anything.
Curated
by Lucie Strecker, Department of Art & Communicative Practice. The pilot project is being developed in dialogue with
the Angewandte Performance Lab.
Sherry Vignon is
from Murfreesboro, North Carolina. She began her career as a moderate Christian radio show host. Realising she
had a knack for helping others, she quickly created Sherapy, a form of active therapy.
She
has worked all over the world helping analysts, therapists, psychiatrists, the terminally ill, marginalised citizens, children,
pets, corporations, and many more.
Sherry has also worked with many women who have gone on
to lead corporate America, helping them unleash and access their inner boss.The Shotel Project
The Shotel has been
a long-time dream of Sherry’s. Sherry specialises in southern hospitality, and the Shotel will be more than a hotel, with
options for Sherapy and immersive entertainment experiences. Sherry is here to take care of you and presents the Shotel as
a resting place to look inward.Sherry uses
advanced physical techniques based on root chakra research she began
doing as a teen. She can help anyone by assertively encouraging them to lookinward. Sherry is also
an entertainer, which does not hurt.
About this project
Lucie Strecker, Lecturer in Art and
Communication Practices (KKP) and Senior Researcher at the Angewandte Performance Lab (APL), will visit the Shotel as part
of her course and work with students. Peter Kozek will perform and facilitate there together with Lucie Strecker at the Shotel.
