Un.rehearsed
The multimedia collaboration between Clive Tanner, Fitgirl, Jorge Bascuñan and Juan Urbina happened in the context of the art residency Uncertain Unities at Ponderosa, Lunow-Stolzenhagen - Germany.
(From September, 20th until October, 3rd - 2021). Inspired by the artistic residency ODD, the aim of this new collaboration was to provoke the experimental aspects of both image and movement as well as art and politics.
​
The research examines the traditional linear deconstruction of time by the interaction of video and performance as an attempt to capture the in/determinant dynamics of a contemporary corporeality. We question the neutrality of the term extinction, related to the death of species, epistemologies, dying languages, dances and civilizations. As a dramaturgical line, we have our lenses on the fragile construction of masculinity. We draw on the syncretism of movement identities, with the focus on the cultural-political context where the loss of contact with nature and rituals is historically related to the rise of Western Civilization, Christianity, Patriarchy, and Capitalism, The epistemicide of Afro-diaspora practices, the extinction of languages and culture, and the Anthropo-climate crisis.
