RE–FEST 2023

A Curve Becomes a Sphere: Towards Another ‘New’

How do we look towards the more-than-human world to inspire different notions of newness, rooted in cycles of birth and decay, rather than progress and invention? How can non-linearity in time assist us in finding alternative ‘new’nesses?

In this conversation hosted by Isabel Beavers (SUPERCOLLIDER) and Suzanne Anker (SVA BioArt Lab), artists will discuss art practices that deal with the concept of newness while also resisting colonality.

Participating artists include: Juan M. Villanueva (SVA Bio Art Lab), Nicholas DelCastillo (SVA Bio Art Lab), Ivana Dama (UCLA ArtSci Center), Alice Bucknell (SUPERCOLLIDER), and Kira Xonorika (SUPERCOLLIDER)!
