A new collaborative performance by Elske Rosenfeld and artist, writer, and cultural organizer Olia Sosnovskaya looks into forms of in/visibility in historical and recent instances of revolution and protest. Small, almost imperceptible gestures, forms of building political moves and structures that happen out of sight, underground, in the shadows and political energies that ferment or continue under the surface are modes of the political that precede, outlast and carry open political dissent and sudden upheavals. Conceived as a conversation between the experience of the 2020 revolution in Belarus, and the forgotten emancipatory history of the 1989/90 revolution, the performance is part of Rosenfeld’s long-term research project www.archiveofgestures.net.
