About event
For centuries we have tried to make the world predictable and orderly, but in times of climate emergency it is becoming increasingly clear that life cannot be planned, controlled or tamed. Moles undermine well-maintained golf courses, carnivores eat monotonous spruce plantations, weeds return to the joints of interlocking pavements, fungi sabotage development projects, and cetaceans attack motorboats.
Mole stone cyanide is a theater performance created in collaboration between KALD DAMU students and the ResisTerra research team at the University's Faculty of Humanities Karlovy.
The unpredictability, rebelliousness, and savagery of non-human beings emerges in moments when events begin to unfold differently from what humans originally intended. The performance mole stone cyanide examines various forms of resistance of non-human beings who rebel against the anthropocentric system.
"We want to show that we were never here x samx, and every event in history was a more than human event. It makes no sense to protect nature from a position in which we separate man from the world in which he lives. We are nature defending itself ourselves.
Based on our ethnographic research and the texts of other anthropologists, we bring to the stage stories about a world in which safety, care and the future are not only the claim of humans. We invite the audience to stay with difficulties - to listen to non-human voices and to imagine a world of more interspecies solidarity."
