Inhalte | Reparative research: Counter-narratives of discomfortable, dialogical and collective Practices. Dry Your Feminist Tears is a four-day collaborative research into deviant, discomfortable, intergenerational feminist artistic practices, histories and strategies to develop alternative tools for survival within and outside of the institutional systems. The act of crying is historically used and mediatized to proof that women are irrational, unintelligent, melodramatic, and self-obsessed, however what if we rewrite the script and seek ways that tears could metaphorically (re)negotiate power imbalances, gazes, affects and time? Through the lens of the act of crying, we will dive deeper into the mechanism and conditioning of white patriarchal power structures and systems and its impact on the self, the collective, and our understanding of the singularity and multiplicity. Can we use cultural materials from the insurgent and experimental genres of counter cultures to 'speak back'? On the other hand, how to confront and go beyond the narcissist crocodile tears of male fragility or white innocence? How to really cut the bullshit while cutting onions? We will look into key concepts such as opacity, disaffiliation and loserdom and repair, and their relation to feminism, empathy, decoloniality and joy— not as competing interpretative strategies or opposite world views, but as evidence and evocation of the collective affect of ʻThe times weʼre inʼ. The four-day communal research consist of the following workshops, reading groups and gatherings:
