A collection of stories of objects, movements of energy and growth
(growing mushrooms at home, building wind turbines from trash, composting)
The poetics and aesthetics of autonomy
Origin stories that's influx growing and developing as culture adapts
oppressions go both ways
When I shit in a toilet I inadvertently
oppress the environment with energy used to move the faeces
I also burden the governing body that deals with my shit which takes "care" of my faeces
(Which eventually trickles down back to me through tax or rates)
That is why when you encourage a community to use compost toilets and take responsibility for their shit the autonomy becomes liberated for the creatures and people hauling the brunt of the oppression.
It also takes away from these centralised systems that have histories of abusing power
These needs become circular
Start with exploring the technological “waste”
to unpick the tangled oppressions embedded inside it.
How do we inhabit and build spaces without oppressing people we cannot see?
How do we Utilise the gallery and museum space to inhabit care for those unspoken?
