Daria Blum presents a multimedia live performance, titled I’m So Disappointed In You (Redux), a reflection on female alliances, desire, and rivalry that encompasses video, music, text and choreography. Incorporating a monologue set in Berlin in the 2010s, Blum embodies various alter egos whose names echo her own; with Daphne, Dahlia, and Daisy assuming leading roles. Through a first-person perspective, the artist narrates the encounters and disputes between these insubordinate characters, moving between different voices and mannerisms, and conversing, arguing and duetting with her counterparts on- and off-screen.

​Traveling between electronic and physical spaces; sampling, looping and remixing digital debris, implementing literary and theatrical devices, Blum’s work investigates how ‘breaking character’ can disrupt prevailing forms of engagement with the world. The artist brings her female characters into the liminal spaces of hostel lobbies, club toilets and waiting rooms, and invites her audience to observe and consider how they perform within them.
