Dialectics of Erasure

This is an experiment.

You, the audience, will become part of the everyday performance of settler colonialism.

The experiment unfolds with a camera operator documenting the process—mirroring how atrocities committed against Palestinians are meticulously recorded yet continue unabated. It interrogates the role that visual broadcasting plays in this violence.

You will be split into groups and guided through a series of real-time actions by the artist, culminating in a lecture-performance.

Settler colonialism is not a relic of the past but an ongoing, performative structure in which we are all implicated.

If you have benefited from global politics, please consider paying more.

Please note: this is an outdoor, weather-dependent performance.

The route is accessible, though it involves moving through London.

Duration: 70 minutes | Age 18+
