At a time when new technologies are reshaping the very conditions of life this symposium asks questions in relation to the future of reproduction. How do we redefine kinship and reproduction when biology itself becomes a site of intervention? How might rituals of care, maintenance, and collective responsibility resist systems of inequality?
At stake are urgent questions of care, justice, and survival. Bringing together thinkers rooted in feminist praxis and queer theory—such as Paul Preciado (ES), Jack Halberstam (US), and Sophie Lewis (UK) — this symposium / performance / event / creative protest asks how we might imagine reproduction and kinship differently, beyond patriarchal structures and the nuclear family. Alternatives which can co-exist with the traditional, in order to ensure better and more inclusive options for a diverse society.
Engaging with radical thinkers and pioneering ideas, the event invites artists, philosophers, scientists, and theorists to reimagine what it means to belong, to parent, and to create together.

The symposium is inspired by Charlotte Jarvis’ ongoing project In Loco Parentis, developed during her residency at The Culture Yard in collaboration with the European Digital Deal. Imagining forms of collective reproduction, the work interrogates the boundaries of law, ethics, and kinship—offering a speculative framework for rethinking how we might parent, belong, and care together beyond the nuclear family.
