Inhalte | In this seminar we widen perspectives on the turbulent relationships between human and non-human bodies and landscape. When queer artists place their own and other bodies in spatial constellations, they question the anthropomorphism with which we draw boundaries between humans and the natural environment. They critically interrogate our traditional imaginations of sexuality and landscape and their interrelationships. They cover, manipulate, and fictionalise the social constructions behind them and argue for an ecology that is not binary or dualistic, but pluriverse, diverse and paradoxical. To address this, we turn to queer and feminist theoretical and artistic productions, such as those by Ana Mendieta, Zheng Bo, Doreen Massey, Tejal Shah, Timothy Morton, Brigitte Baptiste, IQECO, Stefanie Hessler, Emma Haugh-Wolf and many others. We will welcome one or the other as a guest in our seminar. The artistic and theoretical fields of interest and practices of the students themselves will also be incorporated. About the lecturer: Yvonne Wilhelm is an artist (part of the artist duo knowbotiq) and professor, teaching at the ZHdK MFA, who has been experimenting with forms and medialities of social imaginaries, visual regimes, and epistemic disobedience, with a certain focus on queer-feminist and post-/decolonial aspects. Her practical focus is on post-digital time-based formats, installative-performative settings, and research-led art. |
