how to challenge exploitation?

Persistent Nervous Exploitation

Alessia Maria Concetta Carbonara

“Persistent Nervous Exploitation” (2022) is a performance that consists in completely unloading a bic pen without stopping.

A project made in the course

Control

Based on performative group experiments integrated into the course, the students’ bodies, experiences and surroundings will become essential components of the material we use and explore in the studio. Students will discover for themselves how performance practices employ diverse artistic strategies to construct, alter or influence situations. Through their own experimental works, they will learn how live performances, immersive environments, socially engaged projects, activism and digital interventions all shape expanded performative practices that constitute contemporary forms of live projects.
