Fictional Reconfigurations (& Embodied Transformations) is a workshop series by Georgia Perkins and Amanda Rice that features the artists Nina Davies, Becky Lyon, and Jo Pester and their ideas on more-than-human intelligence, modes of communication, and agricultural practices. It explores the linguistic prefix ‘re-’ and its uses toward possible forms of resistance to today’s emergencies and calamities – geopolitical unrest, climate instability, financial struggles – by posing practical alternatives to violent and inefficacious structures. Over three Zoom sessions, participants use aspects of fiction to rehearse dances, re-body earthly curriculums, and reconfigure interspecies communication to speculate on the potential for change in the present and conditions for a reimagined future. Fictional Reconfigurations (& Embodied Transformations) isorganised by Georgia Perkins, curatorial fellow at SIRIUS, and artist Amanda Rice. |
