A presentation and performative lecture at Scarred, Shifting & Sacred Sites: Art, Advocacy & Performance at Autograph ABP, London
“Investigating the ways performative practices challenge prejudice, fear and violence towards the body in society.”
“This event takes Aida Silvestri’s Unsterile Clinic, an exhibition to raise awareness of the widespread practice of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), as a cue to reflect on the gendered, cultural body as a site of struggle, recuperation, and possible transformations. Performers’ responses will address the body as a living map of physical and emotional scars, a site for confronting institutional boundaries as well as the ground for individual and collective resistance.”
Something Human presents: Oreet Ashery, Raju Rage, Helena Walsh & Eca Eps
