What question would you put on the sidewalk of a big city, today?
Artists Fernanda Paixão (@fernandapaixao) and Paloma Klysis (@palomak) will carry 3 selected questions in this bounty to the streets of São Paulo. The provocations generated here in Near’s virtual ecosystem will be written in organic ink in performative walkings in 3 different public spaces in the city of São Paulo.
We ask you to choose one of three themes: Civilization x Biodiversity, Human Rights and Production of Subjectivity
Develop a question/provocation considering the objectives of each of the themes listed:
Civilization x Biodiversity > Awaken reflections on how the civilizational directions are affecting the planetary ecosystem.
Human Rights > Awaken reflections related to people’s understanding of the theme of human rights.
Production of Subjectivity > Awaken reflections related to existential dramas and the production of subjectivity. Micro/macro relationship, “psychological” questions, deeper questions that provoke reflection on the human condition, that stimulate the imagination, reflections on desires, freedom, fears, and feelings in general.
These questions are part of the following proposal:
Deadline to send questions: 08/23.
The submission will be made in the comment of this thread.
Each selected question will receive US$20.00 paid in DAI by Near Wallet transfer. Payment will be made after the selection of the questions, with a deadline of September 15.
As a post-invisible amateur and non-artist persona I would love to see your interpretation of what is not. Is it necessary to be present to be absent? How to disappear completely? Nothing here, nobody What does this concept means to you?
Production of Subjectivity: Qual o gênero do nosso futuro? (I won’t translate to keep the ambiguity of the word “gênero”, which in Portuguese translates to both genre and gender.)
Civilization x Biodiversity: Quanto custa seu ar? 7 Reais? 2 Near?
How much does your air cost? 7 Reais? 2 Near?
