SPECULATIVE SPECULUM

Based on the presumption that it is impossible to overcome the current system of capitalism, the exhibition completely dismisses the logical reality and stages a fictional revolution, driving the political remains into a legible narrative. Scientific analysis, pseudo-politics, esoterics, conspiracy theories, and Live Action Roleplay are shamelessly intertwined and thrown together as actors on a stage. The setting takes place in this liminal moment shortly after the fall of an old system – rooted in the disorientation and newfound potency of infinite possibilities immediately following. The surrounding scenery is purposefully misinterpreted, recontextualized and shaped to fit our story, with the speculum serving as a magical apparatus to examine an ever-changing body investigating its own obscure orifices.
