Toxic Environments
Event Information
Description
Join us for a spoken-word performance and conversation with Pedro Neves Marques.
Pedro Neves Marques’ literary and moving image work ranges from fictional dramas to essays and exploratory video and documentary reporting that addresses clashes among competing anthropologies and images of nature, technology, and gender. Responding to Brazil’s increasing rise of conservative political forces, the artist uses film, poetry, and science fiction as a tool to examine the history of colonisation as well as the possibility of non-Western futures.
Nottingham Contemporary’s public programme is jointly funded by Nottingham Trent University and The University of Nottingham.
