Affective ecologies by Proyecto conspira (Lynx and Zafiro)

_ Residencia 3 – 7 junio 2024
_ PrΓ‘ctica colectiva 7 junio

In this residency we will investigate how to sensually conspire with plants and things to disrupt colonial common sense. Ignited by the plant studies of Natasha Myers (2021), we set out to explore vegetalization and eroticize the care of the living to conjure other possible worlds. We want to learn from the strategies of these beings who have billions of years more experience than us in terraforming habitable worlds. We invoke the cuir sexualities of other species and set ourselves the task of absorbing all types of fantasies through our tissues. We are going to alter our sensorium to open ourselves to new sensible worlds and test habitable worlds. We are seduced by thinking about and practicing non-reproductive, non-genital sex and the varied range of contrasexual practices that proliferate from these relationships. We will practice dirty and hot tenderness by interacting with earth, sand, water and plants in a friction of surfaces and flows. We feel, touch, talk to and grow plants, too, we are touched by them.

Lynx y Zafiro

Proyecto Conspira we are Lynx and Zafiro, non-binary Trans people from Argentina. Zafiro is a stylist, audiovisual producer, rigger and performer. Lynx is an osteopath, dancer, performer and creator.
In 2020, we began our collaboration, driven by the curiosity to explore and share erotic practices in expanded performance formats. 
We performatively investigate different BDSM practices through the construction of intimacy rituals that unfold as territories of political-corporal rehearsals. These sexual, affective, and caring practices explore queer eroticism as a sensitive deviation from bodies and materials. We explore interspecies affections and sexuality, and the eroticizations woven between humans and non-humans. We are ecosexuals, exhibitionists, sadists and masochists among many other perversions.
