She lies on the grave of virginity, singing about how everything has changed since it was buried deep under.
This artist is a terrible actress. She uses her body and childlike voice in a never-ending play, nourished from the ideas of social constructions in everyday society. In this work she sings about the concept of virginity. There is an enduring idea that virginity is a bodily state. That it is a physical thing, and that the body changes when virginity is lost. But virginity is conceptual, it is a social construction. Society created it, gendered it, and assigned it with moral value.
