The American performance artist Ann
Liv Young assumes the persona of Sherry Vignon and opens a hotel of a different kind at the Funkhaus: the Shotel.
Sherry has also devised her own Sherapy programme, so at the Funkhaus you can not only spend the night but be
healed of anything.
The pilot project is being developed in dialogue with the Angewandte
Performance Lab.
Sherry Vignon is
from Murfreesboro, North Carolina. She began her career as a moderate Christian radio show host. Realising she
had a knack for helping others, she quickly created Sherapy, a form of active therapy.
She
has worked all over the world helping analysts, therapists, psychiatrists, the terminally ill, marginalised citizens, children,
pets, corporations, and many more.
Sherry has also worked with many women who have gone on
to lead corporate America, helping them unleash and access their inner boss.
The
Shotel ProjectThe Shotel has been a long-time dream of Sherry’s. Sherry specialises
in southern hospitality, and the Shotel will be more than a hotel, with options for Sherapy and immersive entertainment experiences.
Sherry is here to take care of you and presents the Shotel as a resting place to look inward.Sherry uses advanced physical techniques based on root chakra research she began
doing as a teen. She can help anyone by assertively encouraging them to lookinward. Sherry is also an entertainer,
which does not hurt.
