rEVOLUTION PARTY | gender.RIP x A4 SOUNDS
SAT 5TH MAR 2022 | A4 Sounds Gallery
After two years of hibernation we are starting to re-emerge. But for many of us the anxiety, isolation, and total immersion in our own weirdness has changed us into something… different. In a long-overdue return, gender.RIP is hosting a night of Weirdness; celebrating the making/unmaking of ourselves as a species and how we have mutated and adapted in order to survive and flourish. Leave your vestigial limbs at home and drag your newly formed Self on to land, and join us for an evening of performance, reunion, and metamorphosis at the A4 Sounds gallery.
ADAPTATION / MUTATION / GENDER WEIRDNESS / EVOLUTION / SPECULATIVE FUTURES / BODY HORROR / ISOLATION / DESIRE / SCI-FI / FAMILIAR STRANGENESS / THE MONSTROUS AND UNIQUE / TRANSFIGURATION / ABERRATIONS / ANOMALIES / TRANS HUMANISM / DEVIATION / REDISCOVERY / TRANS JOY
