Every Law a Tattoo // Mal Parry

In this new performance work, Mal Parry responds to the climate of hostility and legislative violence towards queer and trans people via a collision of contemporary materials with traditional craft practices. Hand-embroidering into mass-produced silicone prosthetics, they meet the fragmentation, objectification and exploitation of the body through practices of DIY resistance and repair.

The work is inspired by the uncanny fact that since medieval times, UK laws have been inscribed on vellum (calf skin).

TAIBHSE [Ghost] // Eoin McCaul

TAIBHSE [Ghost] is an ongoing movement and sound work which studies ghosts, particularly those ghosts of touch which haunt the body through life — whether familial, erotic, or otherwise. It emerges out of a fascination with the various forms of touch we encounter in life, as well as a fascination with the relationship between touch and sound.

The score is created live and is composed entirely of sounds of contact made during performance, looped and mixed live by Dilan Kumar.
