On the eve of uncertainty
Charlotte Jarvis (UK)
Der Ort für unsere Tour ist meinem 39 Wochen schwangeren Körper entnommen. Die Tour befasst sich mit dem Projekt In Posse, bei dem ich mit Wissenschaftlern zusammenarbeite, um den weltweit ersten ‘weiblichen’ Samen herzustellen. Sie reflektiert auch darüber, wie die Beobachtung der Wandel meines Körpers während des Jahres 2020 - dieses wandelbarste aller Jahre - eine einzigartig ‘queering experience’ war, die meine Perspektive auf meine Praxis, Politik, das Patriarchat und die Gesellschaft verändert hat.
