Cineclub Amora invites us to lovingly decompose ourselves in a transfeminist evening of oral tradition, Andean-Amazonian ritual, performative lecture with immigrant translanguage justice, and a warm-up for a dance class facilitated by hostess and messenger Galle. These performances will be complemented by a screening of Amaru’s Tongue: Daughter, a film of matrilineal and trans-species tribute directed by the acclaimed Aymara artist Chuquimamani Condori aka Elysia Crampton Chuquimia with an original score by their sibling Joshua Chuquimia Crampton.
Galle creates an immersive experience, transforming Cineclub Amora in the womb of Cosmic Mother Earth, where the screen is a portal/black hole to other non-linear dimensions, where collaboration is already happening between artists involved, and where interaction with the audience is stimulated by storytelling, dance, and somatic score.
Followed by a Q&A with Chuquimamani Condori and hostess/curator Galle.
