By developing this exhibition and event programme, we aim to raise open-ended questions regarding the positionalities of ourselves and fellow practitioners navigating and orienting themselves in the tentative portrayal of an abstract tango with the multitudinal structures in place. If revolting against particular systems through the means of disobedient forms is or is perceived to be irrevocably complicit with the structure itself, where and what could the gestures of transgression and subversion of said systems lead to? What new narratives and alternatives could generate from such circumstances? In the exploration of these questions, we present this programme as a ﻮєรՇยгє, a &#x27;salutation&#x27; to the structures bearing us and the structures we may find ourselves inadvertently part of. ♡
