What happens when we think of the body not as a
closed svstem, but as a site of continuous
exchange?
You Are What You Digest brings together two artistic practices that approach biological processes from radically different directions.
Thomas Feuerstein's METABOLICA is a five-chapter artistic system about metabolic cycles, moving from the Industrial Revolution and whaling through petrochemistry toward a possible biochemica future. It connects nature, economy, politics technology, art and science through actual biologica processes.
In her work BLOT - Body Line of Thought, developed with Vanessa Goodman, Simona Deaconescu explores the body through choreography, examining the invisible organisms that inhabit us and shape our biological and social existence
Their practices meet around questions of
transformation, contamination and coexistence:
What enters the body, what leaves it, and what
changes in the process? What happens when
digestion becomes not only a biological process, but also a way of thinking about culture, technology, ecology and our relationship to other forms of life?
Rather than a conventional lecture, the evening takes the form of a shared dinner and conversation, a setting in which the subiect of metabolism becomes part of the experience itself.
