Video Documentation of the šŸ”—ā€Earth BondsšŸ”—ā€ Artistic Programme

The very last and probably the most special drop from the šŸ”—ā€Earth BondsšŸ”—ā€symposium we made last April.Ā 

Following the rhythm of the dusk settling in, an artistic programme unfolded together with artists JASPER GRIEPINK, HASHIA, JENNA SUTELA, BARNETT COHEN, MARISSA LEE BENEDICT AND DAVID RUETER, AND NGOC NAU.

Earth Bondsā€™Ā performance programme explored spaces of confabulated survival, where ongoing memories of economic anxiety are supplanted by sympoietic tales of kinship. The artists who was performing utilised Rupertā€™s infrastructure and its serene surroundings, addressing creative tensions between technoscience and naturecultures. Grasping soil and sifting through decentralised particles, the event guided the audience through worlds in motion.
