Concept

MAKE YOUR MUTANT BODY BADDANCE AND EARN SEEDS OF FUTURES. With this participatory installation, visitors are invited to mutate, to join THEBADWEEDS — a trans-species music group that is part-human, part-plant. Its hybrid members embody a queer ecological transition: they grow from oblivion, cracks, and the most inhospitable places, humorously demonstrating the resilience and resistance of weeds. The immersive experience invites the audience to transform and mutate through dance, offering a festive and playful perspective on ecological transition. The installation offers a three-part journey: discovering the universe of THEBADWEEDS through a video; dancing to mutate as a new plant body forms; and finding one's new mutant body. A project by Rocio Berenguer commissioned by mudac for Soleil.s / Solar Biennale 2.
