Study of a Predator Bojana (S) Knežević
Study of a Predator Bojana (S) Knežević
The Balkan Radikal initiative presents a one-day showcase of the performative multichannel installation and ongoing artistic research of the artist Bojana (S) Knežević.
In Harpirexia: Study of a Predator, the artist embodies a hybrid bird-woman predator, engaging in a series of audio-visual micro-choreographies, each contributing to a collection of superpowers, vital for her survival as an immigrant woman artist. Inspired by mythology, the realm of nature, female superheroes, and fables, the project reacts to the systemic silencing of female, queer, and non-human bodies in patriarchal society. Through the lenses of ecofeminism and feminist speculative fiction, Harpirexia: Study of a Predator reflects the unpredictable and surreal nature of our realities, capturing the disorienting chaos that defines the world today. In the face of global crises, intersectional discrimination, and existential struggles, it highlights the extraordinary resilience, courage, and inner strength required to confront the ever-shifting tides of social and political turmoil.
