@THEBADWEEDS
They grow out of oblivion, out of cracks, out of the most inhospitable, wild and anarchic places, coexisting with us, among us, their existence is a gesture of resilience, living proof of resistance.
Crazy creatures, part-human part-plant, perform post-Anthropocene song, slam and dance. Rocio Berenguer is a universal artist casting the human dimension onto a trans-species world set somewhere between fact and fiction, a world where there are no more distinctions based on gender, or between nature and technology, between a concert performance as a grand collective rite and a performance of dance, theater or poetry. Nor are there distinctions between fine minds and “bad weeds.” Quite the contrary! There is fun to be had together when a new non-anthropo-centric world can flourish, a world of charming, wonderfully fuzzy, hairy “smart mushrooms.” Thomas Hahn
