Anna Prokopová / Costas Kekis / Andrea Gunnlaugsdóttir - Knuckles become clouds
DANCE/PERFORMANCE/MUSIC
Prokopová, Kekis and Gunnlaugsdóttir experiment with potential abilities of a post-human body and post-human mind. They question human perception and affections. The human is regarded as a character oscillating between states of dependency and authority in a multi-sensory world of interactions between animate and inanimate beings. These interaction patterns remind us of the prosthetic nature of all human beings, a nature rooted in interactional dimensions with other humans and species but also with other forms of technicity and materiality. Thus, any hierarchical and anthropocentric position of humankind will be questioned: Rather than vertical and hegemonic interactions, horizontal relationships will be emphasised. The three artists will present a post-human performativity by means of a joint body practice and a language based on memory, imagination and intuitive sensory input.
Double feature: Following Knuckles become clouds, you have the opportunity to see the performance Origins by Oleg Soulimenko at 19.30 at TQW Halle G.
