How do flowers, plants and animals think about karaoke, ceramics and newspapers? During this multispecies festival, the platform for extratonality explores different ways to give other species a place within the creative field. On Friday, we focus on multispecies communication, while on Saturday we look at other forms of collaboration. In both cases, we want to shake up anthropocentrism in art and look at new approaches to non-human art and performance. Just as animals, plants and other ecosystems are part of our world, they should also be an equal part of the art we create.
Line-up:
* Lindertje Mans (Chicks In Dialogue)
* Niek Hilkmann & Mathijs van Oosterhoudt (Multispecies Karaoke)
