The Resisting Extinction project by the BodyCartography Project (Olive Bieringa and Otto Ramstad) is an international performative and participatory event taking place as part of the PERFORM EUROPE programme.
Resisting Extinction invites us not only to look toward the future, but also to look around and notice what we are losing. Together, our bodies live inside this ecological crisis. This ecological crisis is also a crisis of identity. Everything is changing. How can we, personally and collectively, face the ecological crisis — with our physical and emotional bodies?
We gather onsite and invite the audience to take part in :
– weather walk; an intimate journey where we transform our small talk about the weather.
– in the missing the landscape comes alive, haunted by critically endangered multi-species beings.
– dying and decomposing practices into the land and sea, allow us to collectively practice for potential climate realities.
