Poster by Saskia Smith & Sam Evers
𝓘n the cold breeze of a new earth, a perversely-shaped creature is born. It emerges out of the synthetic waters, still sticky with slime from its mothers womb. A dusky ancient light sweeps across the sky as the newly born being, shiny and cold, opens its eyes to look straight at you. Together you linger through the plastic valleys, between metallic forests, into the castle of occult sound. Suddenly memories from a distant past float to the surface, dragging you to places where binary thinking was seeded deeply in earth’s crust. Yet the cold touch of the newborn creature closes this passage, drawing you back to the reality where artifice and mysticism live in harmony. As you look at all the crossbreed creatures that rule this kingdom of hybridity, you suddenly see yourself.
