We find ourselves in dense depths. We've been pulled into the gyre, past the point of no return by chimeric forces stacked against us. Our bodies? Spaghettified - pulled apart by gravity and mined for resources. The artists in this program are stuck down here with us, too.
In Holly Hunter's texts we find murky waters, hybrid creatures, and queer narratives. For Upstream, she presents a new reading related to our theme. In the performances ‘Desbridar’ by Post-Organic Bauplan, the "more-than-human" takes centre stage as insectoid, robotic prosthetics expand the performers’ bodies and posit new modes of being that go against the institutionalised, productive or “natural” body. Dense feelings are condensed and extrapolated in the lyricism of Iceboy Violet: their unique and obscured approach to rap, poetry and sound art brings the event to a close in a warm embrace of collective catharsis.
