“Unsettling yet brutally honest….“
“….unique and impactful performance”

Concept
Starkly repetitive and energetic, Nutcrusher looks at sexual objectification and power.
As a woman, performer and migrant, Sung Im Her is interested in how these three identities intersect, especially in relation to the slow but now dramatic arrival of the #metoo and #timesup in Korea. The trio Nutcrusher premiered at ARKO, Seoul in January 2019.
