Bleeding to Life

An essay-performance, this media-archaeological examination celebrates the revolutionary potential of recognizing and engaging with our collective, gaping wounds. Taking Caravaggio’s The Incredulity of Saint Thomas as a point of departure, I construct a narrative that links the production of subjectivities in “post”-colonial contexts, with the technosexual networks of resistance and coded information exchange that grew out of the government-manufactured crack epidemic in oppressed neighborhoods throughout the late 70s/early 80s and today. Indebted to the writing of Donna Haraway, Jussi Parikka, Hortense Spillers, & Kanye West. Created specifically for the Dark Diction event on January 16, 2015 at JACK in NYC, organized by Social Health Performance Club.
