IntimateAnimals

​

The collective is exploring queerness, intimacy and ecology through rituals. Playing with poetry, trance-states & butoh, we want to express our desire of fusion with nature. We are urban witches looking to create moments of radical heart lust and body-ecosystem symbiotic euphoria.

​

We are looking to re-create alternative mythologies to hopefully replace the sexist, colonialist ones that built our present culture. Our practice is also based on performing the non-human. It is a way of developing interspecies conscious compassion and a profound understanding of the continuous exchange between the individual body and the “outside” environment. Our skins are blurred and open, our cells communicate with the air, water, bacteria. We are trying to understand how this micro-communication generates our sense of self and our identities.
