Created by the gifted young dancer-choreographer Chou Kuan-Jou for herself and two other performers, not to mention a few ripe and shapely red fruit, TOMATO is a cultural experience both playful and provocative.

Lust and desire take centrestage in a canny, capricious combination of live performance and live-camera documentation. This enticingly tasty work is an absurdly funny expression of Chou’s ongoing interest in gender issues from a feminist perspective.

Here private manifestations of sexuality receive a rib-ticklingly public spin. Ideal fare, then, for anyone curious about seriously tongue-in cheek, cross-art form exploration.
