    dismantling humanism, posthumanism, manifesting the future

  • Event location

    Romania

In this animated video, we are calling for imagining an open future with non-human & human people who will be facing what the (hu)man has left us. Inspired by feminist, anti-speciesist, and posthumanist theories, the acting voices question, wonder, and ultimately declare that this “human” is shaped according to just one model. That model must be left behind to make space for others. This dismantling of the “humanist fantasy” is a show because it is not yet manifested. We have yet to perform it, to materialize it, to make it real.
