Blending fiction and archival material, Vrouwenproblemen: spinning the mechanisms of troublemaking is a polyphonic choral piece conceived by Andrea Celeste La Forgia & Gloriya Avgust that brings into focus the idiosyncrasies of supposedly class-related female ‘troublemaking’.
In Vrouwenproblemen, she is found everywhere: in the prison, the factory, the workshop, the brothel, the housing estate, the roof, the kitchen, the bedroom, the street. She incarnates everyone: the mother, the worker, the nurse, the unemployed, the witch, the prisoner, the artist, the “we”, the “I”. Guess what? They all turned out to be exactly the same person. In Vrouwenproblemen, she lingers with the trouble, moving across non-linear historical accounts as a strategic act of constant dispossession and repositioning.
