By travelling to the UK from the Philippines via Italy, this performative screening aims to create affective bridges through Pinayist and ecotransfeminist discourses and embodiments. With two films and pole dancing, we will focus on the significance and intersections of land, body and spirituality in Filipino embodiment and imagination, and how, through these, diasporic communities can find proximity to their motherland within the sacredness of their bodies-as-land.

The screening will feature a performance by Alison, followed by a hybrid conversation with the artists Ram Botero, Bunny Cadag and Alison.
