(W/HOLE) Episode 10 – Download

In (W/HOLE)’s finale Alice the Wolfe binds Erykah Ohms to a sparse symphony of breaking glass.

Erykah Ohms kneels on the floor in white underwear. Behind her, Evie Snax, Special Guest, and Ginny Woolf sit stoically, using hammers to shatter glass, creating a sparse sound score. Alice the Wolfe tackles Erykah Ohms and binds her body with rope. As Alice binds Erykah’s face, distorting it using mouth and nose hooks, Erykah willingly submits to having her fluids pulled out of her. Alice gently kisses Erykah’s forehead, and the two performers hold hands as the glass breaking crescendos.
