M Murphy – Lessons from Birdsong: Land/Body Desires in the Aftermath

Starlings sing new songs when they grow-up in persistently polluted lands. Desires and sexualities shift. The relations of our bodies go far beyond the skin, stretching outwards to lands, waters, non-humans, ancestors, and those yet to come. We make one another in difficult conditions. What can we become? How can we dream of land-body desires when fossil fuel capitalism and colonialism continues to thrive? Following Frantz Fanon’s example of ‘inserting invention into existence’, M Murphy brings Metis, Anishinaabe, and Haudenosaunee feminist and queer land-body relations to offer a desire-based and after-pessimism vision of anti-colonial justice.24 February 2024Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, The Netherlands→ Explore more of the 2024 Biennial programme at https://2024.sonicacts.comCREDITSCamera: Engage!
