Tipping Points @ Podium, Apr 22 – May 8

22 April 2016

The Tipping Points — Flourish and Collapse in the Circularity of the Geostory group exhibition is on at Oslo’s Podium, opening April 22 and running to May 8.

Curated by Angela Chan and including artists Joey Holder and Jakob Kudsk Steensen among others, the show contemplates the so-called ‘tipping point’ of climate change and man-made mass species extinction.

The event opens on this year’s Earth Day with performances by Andreas Ervik, and Rachel Pimm with Lori E. Allen, amid calls for “an activation of symbiosis between Earthlings of all species, to end the hyper-branded avant-luxury environment of the Capitalocene and to eradicate all traces of the combusted Anthropocene.”

The press release takes a quote from author of the ‘Cyborg Manifesto’ Donna Harraway as a starting point, “I am a compost-ist, not a posthuman-ist: we are all compost, not posthuman” and ends on a projected “Chthulucene re-worlding for a multispecies ecojustice.”
