CRY

Stripped of armour to a transparent vulnerability.

Individuals in private pain – shared in unexpected spaces. In a poetic silence, these emotions swell, filling up the space between you and I. With each tear we shed, a new layer does emerge. Here we remain, transfixed in a state of flux, translucent beings, waiting and wanting of more.

A visual collaboration between portraiture and performance, CRY is the first foray into portraiture and videography by Melbourne-based performance artist and writer Jessi Lewis. CRY challenges the notion of masculinity, while transgressing the realms of sexuality and asking ‘What role does art assume in this ongoing shift in perception?’

Moving and honest, CRY shows men opening up and revealing their vulnerability through the tears they shed in video portraits.

Jessi Lewis has been creating solo performance for fifteen years, both nationally and internationally, and most recently in Indonesia, Malaysia and India.

Alongside his cross-disciplinary solo works are his collaborative explorations with individuals across a broad spectrum of investigative, cultural and creative backgrounds. His work is never comfortable, and always challenges the ideals of the mainstream.

Through art Jessi believes that bridges can be built between individuals and communities.
