Krow
soy hearts (2018)
An experiment becoming public performance by mistake, thinking of learning through queer kin, thinking of dynamics of belonging, thinking of exploitation and "othering" the animal kin, thinking of slaughterhouses, thinking of cycles of care and abuse, thinking of spaces of lack of freedom to be, thinking of mirrors.
All sparkled and documented in Manuel Vason's performance workshop.
this meat I chew from your sacred bones,
matter with pulsating breath:
your flesh in my flesh decaying. who am i
to perform my actions. where are the roots of my identity
that gives me access
to my actions
?
the face and hands i choose to wear:
self poisoning.
i stick my master-claws slowly
in someone else’s chest. and i die screaming
my own name
endlessly.
