Event Description

Greetings,

To participate, follow these instructions to create your postcard:

Open yourself to creative disorganization.
Break the body’s habitual functions: breathe with your belly, see with your skin, hear with your eyes, touch with your liver.
Practice becoming: experiment with in-between social, gender, and professional roles.
Let yourself be affected by other stimuli—art, music, substances, meditation, or any means that displace your usual sensibilities.
Begin your postcard seeking a living, intensive body. Use pens, pencils, cut-outs, and materialities of your own body—hair, nails, teeth, bodily fluids, or whatever you deem necessary to “undo the judgment of the body.” Create visual poems, object-poems, visual narratives, and other experiments.
Optionally, include a letter describing your experience creating this zone of freedom and intensity.
Send your materials in a sealed envelope to:

Ícaro Almeida
650 Manoel Eufrásio Street
Block B8, Apt. 54
Juvevê
Curitiba – PR
80540-010
BRAZIL

Include: first name, last name, country, address, e-mail, and website (if any).
On the envelope, write: Exercises to Undo the Judgment of the Body (or to Create a Body without Organs for Oneself)

Deadline: April 1, 2026
