Intervention - David Szanto & Maxime Giroux
cocktails/bitters/dropper bottles, flowers/plants/vases, human participants
This performance event, created specially for the 2022 edition of SIGHT+SOUND—Dancing While Waiting (For the End of the World)—foregrounds the power of natural ecologies to intervene in the often-unchecked momentum of human ‘progress’. Blending spoken-word, concept cocktails, floral installations, and audience engagement, Botanicals Against Humanity asks whether we think we’ve had enough yet. As our habits of resource extraction, industrial agriculture, and intensive migration spiral out of control, the planet is fighting back. Water, soil, and air have become vectors of retaliation, and despite our technocratic and political ‘remedies’, human resistances seem to be waning. So raise a glass—to our health!—and bottoms up!—because we’re getting close to last call. (Oh, and don’t forget to make your bitter(s) choice: neoliberalism never tasted so good.)
