In 1998, shortly after Marcel-li Antunez introduced us to the work of American artist Ron Athey and his performance Excerptions from Four Scenes of a Harsh Life, we conceived a series of performances where artists employed their sexual attributes as political assets, raising questions about identity, morality, bodily sovereignty, corporate cannibalism, and more. At two separate festivals, Explicit Sexual Practices as Art Expression and as part of the Beauty of Extreme festival held in Slovenia's main cultural venue, Cankarjev Dom, we invited artists who were performing their intimate selves or using their artistic methodologies to challenge social misconceptions and taboos.

At the turn of the millennium, the socially constructed heteronormative body was being questioned and explored through numerous alternatives. Kapelica Gallery became a vibrant artistic space for investigating the dichotomy between morality and ethics."
