Invisible knowledge – disrupting the colonial project with methodologies of the crossroads
Workshop mit Pêdra Costa (in englischer Sprache)
How could something you do not know touch you? What effect(s) can knowledges evoke when they appear invisible to you? Where to start to transform failure into creative force(s), in connection with mixed and forgotten ancestries? The workshop takes Pêdra Costa’s Southern Butthole Manifesto as point of departure to critically address how the colonial project promotes annihilation and extinction of knowledge. In the workshop, Pêdra Costa will elaborate on ‘Invisible Knowledge’ used in the performance on February 4, 2019, and comes back to artistic strategies including post-porn aesthetics, queer politics and the methodology of the crossroads, through hers own body. The aim is to both convey and confuse the usage of such strategies vis-à-vis the participants, while situating them in the context of Macumba, in back and forth motions from Pêdra Costa’s day-to-day queer life experiences of decolonial resistances from Brazil to Western Europe.
