Memories from the Year 2030: breath.echoes

We are archeologists in the current year, 2030. While scouring the desolate landscape, we found and excavated a series of time capsules. Our hypothesis is that these artifacts were utilized in various breath-practice rituals from the year 2020, before the Great Visitation. The capsules were multi-use: they were shared-breath facilitators and receptacles for written memories of breath. Once the Great Visitation was upon us, they were hermetically sealed and buried. Thus the breath captured therein resonated, amplifying memories and creating… breath.echoes…

Ayodamola Tanimowo Okunseinde (he/they) reclaims spaces for underrepresented communities with the use of technology, ritual and the speculative. His work is about problematizing relationships between physical, spiritual, and virtual spaces as a form of critique.

Teresa Braun (they/them) is a Canadian artist based in New York City. They create drag performances, videos, and interactive installations that blend queer theory, pop culture, and heteronormative archetypes in order to challenge binary notions of gender and explore intimacy.
