Description: created in the immediate aftermath of Trump’s election in the united states as well as demonetisation in India, Pentagon Meshes explores the idea of The ‘mesh’ –an idea borrowed from post-humanism that connects seemingly disjointed events and worlds. Using this structure and exploring my beard as a mesh, this lecture-performance explores the personal as the political, drawing connections between important figures in my life, a bird, and larger socio-political issues.
