A performed reflection on Malin’s previous re-enacting of a super influential landmark of performance art from the French feminist and artist Gina Pane.
A kind of an informal overview of INSTAL.
Two bottomless brunch writing workshops—with readings—speculating the relationship between space, infrastructure, technologies and sex.
Tormented and drawn-out high-pitched yelps and drones, all interleaved with periods of torpid silence.
A performance for dry ice and four specially constructed steel tables, each one heated by a single candle until searingly hot.
A performed, open, public conversation about how we might think politics from the position of intuition, in which Denise and Valentina use un-reasonable tools to map out a hybrid poetical/ ethical reading of their own situations.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
Joan La Barbara presents works exploring the colour spectrum of a single pitch resonating in her skull, an evocation of bird song and circular singing.
A somehow hyper-modern, ancient and folkloric lip-synced, made-up, fashioned performance.
A voice that can vault from an elegantly whispered insinuation to asphyxiated and murderous barks or squalls in a heartbeat.
Goofily deformed, deeply thought vocal jams: like the sound of your own breath rushing through your head.
Trans-temporal drag, sexuality and the re-staging of illegible moments in history.
