Exhibition Announcement!!!

We are delighted to announce our upcoming exhibition UTOPROCESSING, at Y2 Damsterdiep, Groningen, as part of Maydays 2021 🖥️💦 23rd - 30th May, 15:00-20:00 every day, opening at 17:00 on the first day 💦🖥️ Pipes and tubes run through our bodies like fibre optic cables under the sea; carrying data from one component to another, cleansing and cooling the system, and merging all parts into one comprehensive working unit. Utoprocessing is a mixed media exhibition by Martina Priehodova, Lily Dollner, Julius Jonker, and Robert IJserinkhuijsen. Combining sculpture, installation, film, sound, painting, and photography, our project explores hydrofeminism and the ways in which transhumanism can be reconciled in the human body.

WE ARE ALL BODIES OF WATER, BECAUSE

...We breathe our oxygen out of our bodies

And do our part to make sure that Life lives, and that its people live In balance.

And the truth is very different

Our ancestors who lived far away had

More water to drink; more food; and less meat.

And what do human beings eat out of their bodies?

Well. Here is the truth.

So when you eat a raw hamburger, for example, a person

Will probably be eating beef

And the reason for that is because they don't like

Henderson said that the body is like a house of cards, so there is usually no room for you to

Place those boxes of paper on top of your hamburger to fill your stomach and to keep it from bleeding or dry out.

We have to live in a world that allows

Our food to be eaten.

Our food is not that raw or fat anymore; Our food is what is needed.

Now, with our bodies eating away at us; It would be great if our lives were less

Dietetic to have a hamburger in front of other people.

But I'm afraid it's not a really

good

life if there weren't this needlessly

“I myself have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is; I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat.”

— Rebecca West, British Journalist

“‘Man’ and ‘woman’ are not stable or universal categories, nor do they have the explanatory power they are routinely invested with.”

-  Diana Fuss, in the book “Essentially Speaking”

“In the act of eating […] the confines between the body and the world are overstepped by the body; it triumphs over the world, over its enemy, celebrates its victory, grows at the world’s expense.”

— Mikhaïl Bakhtin, Rabelais and his World

“They reclassify healthy adult female flesh as “cellulite,” an invented “condition” that was imported into the United States by Vogue only in 1973; they refer to this texture as “disfiguring,” “unsightly,” “polluted with toxins.” Before 1973, it was normal female flesh.”

— Naomi Wolf, The Beauty Myth; 1990

include physically disabled people in your body positivity.

prosthetics, mobility aids, hearing aids, etc. are often extensions of our body to us. not accessories.

these things are highly stigmatized and cause people to think it's okay for them to invade our privacy, boundaries, and bodies.
