In DEAR FUTURE EJACULATORS: the testicular sac, typically overshadowed by the phallus, takes center stage. Within it lie shame, pain, lust, dependence, ignorance, and dangerously fecund seed. Johanna Ledermann and Tess Mar playfully plunder the sac, creating an opulent iconography of testicles. Wrapped in a stimulating soundscape and a poetic, polyphonic voiceover, the viewer's gaze glides over naked testicles, touches baroque jewelry, and explores questions of relationships and responsibility.
