What do you truly see before you see what you want to see? TREUEAKTION is a performative exploration of the journey into the self. This livexperiment unfolds through an endless loop of vaseline, half-filled with honey and water — substances deliberately chosen for their distinct qualities to question the ‘ego-tune optimism.’ This term refers to the self-optimizing projection of the ego in virtual spaces, where the pursuit of perfection and recognition often obscures the view of one’s authentic, unvarnished identity.
