Tereza Silon’s interdisciplinary practice stir on the confines of performance, healing technologies, facilitation and research. She combines the theoretical and the political with embodied explorations. Her interest lies within the social and natural ecologies, individual and collective bodies, intersectionality, queering, the erotic and possibilities of expansive intimacy in extractive systems as a subversion/healing of power structures. Her theoretical rudiments have also risen from her studies of rituals and ephemeral art forms, studies of clinical naturopathy and bodywork practice. www.terezasilon.com

Zeynab Gueye is an interdisciplinary artist, researcher, community organizer, an initiator of a digital queer-feminist platform and a DJ. Their practice is influenced by their love for pro-Black queerness, intersectional feminism and by their interest in ecologies and the abilities to dream of visionary futurisms amidst social depression. Their academic experience is influenced by the study of reflexive anthropologies and postcolonial theories. They perceive individual contextualized embodied experience as a source of valid knowledge.

Kirstin Burckhardt is a visual artist combining video, drawing and performance with sound and spoken word. Critically drawing upon her training in psychotherapy and neuroscience, her practice addresses body as an interpersonal fact and friction, continuously rubbing against the questions: »Do you have a body? Are you a body? Are you making your body?«. Continuously questioning what defines a body, her artistic research focuses on interpersonal space as a locus of sensitivity that surpasses the body-mind duality in favor of empathy, transgenerational trauma, and the power of imagination.
