Beatriz will explore her thinking, on film as translation, plural subjectivity or land-based militancy. Discussion will centre around her work Oriana and its companion piece Oenanthe, which will be screened in full.
Tiny fragments of sound recombined and woven into spare and precise, violent yet beautiful pieces
Coming to us from Taipei, Yo-Yo sends us elsewhere while bringing us back with her to the timezone of tomorrow. A dancer, media artist, and choreographer who makes multi-dimensions and realms, Lin’s amplification of energies and connections across bodies devolves the separations we are taught to abide.

Jarringly beautiful and often maniacal expression of hallucinatory and very personal visions.
Discussion: If we approach “care as an event” rather than as a “contract of exchange” then what becomes possible in how we know, care for, and appreciate each other?
A sung-through Nubian musical ballet. A darkly humorous take on sexual trauma and what magical and ancestral tools might heal it.
Heat-mapped bodies, found porn films, Korean psyche-folk, creepy police intrusion and self-defence.

Long Stringed Instrument performance involving up to 100 wires strung in tension over a 40m arch.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
