title: anthropocentric acts against the idea of nature

media: video installation, performance, writing

duration: 25:00, looped

year: 2016

context: ‘anthropocentric acts against the idea of nature’ is a list of instructional videos followed by performances that seek to validate human (or ‘cultural’) actions against the non-human (or ‘nature’). presented as a video installation in the form of a panopticon, the piece calls into question the position of the viewer, attempting to destabilize the nature-culture binary and allow for a new kind of environmentalism – one that accepts humankind and by extension, human actions, as inseparable from ‘nature’.
