HOTMESS

In The Flesh is a decadent life drawing experience designed to ignite your creative fire and release you from normality. By marrying together immersive performance and a life drawing class, HOTMESS have created a hybrid beast of a show that's sure to sweep you up and take you on a creative journey. 

Be prepared to be immersed in a fictional world of costume, sound, lighting and performance used to playfully nudge one to question the fabric of life through emotional experiences. HOTMESS thrive on the edge exploring ideas that are cheeky, evocative and conceptual, creating a banquet of food for thought, a bit of heat in your seat and a smile on your dial. 

With meticulous art direction, HOTMESS curate each show to create a dynamic space where participants can liberate their creativity. Their goal is to transcend boundaries, fostering an environment where the audience actively engages, experiments, and discovers the diverse worlds we craft through performance. Welcome to a new dimension of artistic expression with HOTMESS.

​HOTMESS is a multidisciplinary collaboration between Sophie May and Gabrielle Miller.

They create surrealistic narratives and performative art offering audiences healthy escapism. Designed to ignite your creative fire, we immerse you in a fictional world, using costume, sound, lighting and stories. Their practice takes many forms, adjusting to different realms from life-drawing classes to online courses, festival performances, theatre performances and gallery exhibitions. 

Sophie Taylor is a Gamilaraay artist living and creating on Country. She is inspired by her cultural background and using visual art as a powerful tool for self-expression.

Gabrielle Miller is a director and performer bringing ingenuity to the stage and screen through music, dance, acting, puppetry and mask. A chimerical storyteller with a wide-reaching practice, Gabrielle trained at the Atelier für Physisches Theatre in Berlin and worldwide with many of her self-devised shows.
