“I’m Here is a new performance by Franko B, in collaboration with Anthony Martin. Known internationally as a pioneering performance artist, Franko B revisits his seminal bloodletting works for the first time in 15 years through 360° body-mapping techniques. The deep cuts, at times exaggerated and distorted, are interwoven with 7000 images from the internet, to show a global history of war, abandonment, homophobia, freedom, displacement, famine and sex through the lense of the camera. The performance confronts the viewers with an emotionally charged choreographed experience that ultimately equates the pain of the individual with the open wounds of society.”

“Sometimes our emotions build up and we let off steam to release the pressure. But what happens when that release involves blaming someone else unfairly? Is groundless prejudice found in all societies? Are we also guilty of avoiding our collective failures?”

“Besides Press is a new non-profit publishing company that celebrates a particular approach to photography: projects that are created with an impulsive curiosity, without deliberation, and often without an audience in mind. This includes spontaneous side projects, playful collaborations, and offbeat experiments.”

“Olga is waiting to transform into a real person. Levels of achievement depend on the day but she’s yet to get on the property ladder, complete a phd, write a novel or fix the toilet seat. Still, most days she’s just relieved she hasn’t died as a result of a horrific and unprecedented coincidence. Or fallen out of the sky.”
