Mesh&Wire

A performance by Xenia Taniko, with dramaturgical advice by Maya Weinberg

Mesh&Wire is occupied with the slippery edges of embodiment. It is the process of a body dismembered, a body with many members, spread across the room, evading its own contours. If the body is something larger than its parts, where does it begin and where does it end? Where does a body draw power from? What are its assets? In this performance, Xenia Taniko orchestrates the singular body as an intricate network of textures and relations, affect and effect, power play and interdependence. Mesh&Wire is the first chapter within an ongoing process of work investigating prosthetic nature, questioning monolithic concepts of subjectivity and order.

'''God’s Parrot'''

A performance by Scali Delpeyrat, with the complicity of '''Peter Snowdon'''

« You will find nearby a house at whose gates there are a number of parrots in cages, discussing topics like : ‘Do the Vedas have self-validity or do they depend on some external authority for their validity ? Are karmas capable of yielding their fruits directly, or do they require the intervention of god to do so ? Is the world eternal, or is it a mere appearance ?’ When you find this strange phenomenon of caged parrots discussing such abstruse philosophical problems, know that to be the gate of Mandana’s place. » (The Kâmashâstra of Nandi).
