| Abstract | On Symbiosis, Zoonosis is an essay featured in the artist's publication Anoxic Bodies (2021). Anoxic Bodies is a collection of meditations, poems and short essays: On the Airborne; On Symbiosis, Zoonosis; On the Machinic and Biological ~ Carrying, Exchanging and Transmissions; On Cleaning & Cleansing; and On Anoxic Bodies. It accompanies a series of works, of the same name, made using: soap, water, germ and virucidal solution, hand-sanitiser, hermetically- sealed plastic substrates, osha root, astragalus, eucalyptus, and saliva. These function as material compositions to call on, as to signify, cellular envelopes and structures. In part a response to the SARS-CoV-2 virus, this publication pulls from, and unpacks, discourses surrounding: human and non-human bodily relationality; socio-economics; telecommunication technologies; carrying and exchange; social bubbles, cleaning and cleansing; medicinal plants and the airborne. This work follows the rubric of mail art and New Materialism. |
