HOLIDAY ACTIVATIONS

BLOODTIDE holiday activations are continuing to be be imagined and practiced across the continent (and beyond?!) There’s at least 450 million ways to celebrate in homage to horseshoe crabs and our more-than-human ancestors of all kinds.

NATURE DRAG WORKSHOPS

Naturedrag proposes a third+ form – not dragking or queen, but kin. Accessible to anyone with a body; “I” but no longer first-person. The flamboyant failures of our clumsy DIY anthropomorphism arouse pleasure and empathy, potentially lubricating further vulnerability to unsettling anthropocentrism and maybe other hierarchies of power and scale.

 

FLAG WOKRSHOPS

I’ve been working with 5th graders to create flags in celebration of organisms, last year anywhere, this year – local flora and fauna! Look out for them displayed in the window of The Olneyville Public Library in this spring.
