Stateless Mind - Body of Knowledge: Performance Art and Video Streaming, a satellite event for Venice Biennale 2022, Venice, Italy
Title: Letter to the Forest
The aim of this performance art is to allow the audience to participate by coming up with messages about the spirit of nature, which build bridges to connect their lives and the natural environment.
The idea of sending messages is quite synonymous with our contemporary lifestyle, but it has always been a part of the traditional activities of indigenous people.
This performance art is inspired by the Asian tradition of putting a message on the banyan tree. In my indigenous community e=where, strong shamanistic traditions still exist, this goes even further. Offerings of food and verbal requests are made to the spirits of the trees and the jungle to ask permission to utilise the environment.
