A---Z presents a special two evenings of screenings and performances on bodies and sexualities, as part of Mimosa House’s current events programme exploring Tomaso Binga’s work.
A---Z’s ‘Unknown' projects have unfolded in several acts, through discussions, performances, installations and screenings, counteracting homogenisation & imperialist historicising. The project asks: how do we create a platform to question and defy the norm? What are the options, solutions & human representations we can explore for new possibilities?
The screenings are a reflection on current shared interests: in the gaze on the ‘other’ and its representation in a search for new possible structures. The works selected explore ideas from future bodies: challenging gender hierarchy and beyond, to deconstructed & alternative narratives for different discourses around (hi)stories.
