Street interludes: performative notes

Abstract

In this text, I bring together a series of performances I have been developing in different cities since 2016, presented in the form of chronicles and accounts that constitute an experiment in polyphonic writing, this selection of works explores how the reflections gathered and the encounters established with people can offer a glimpse into the ways artistic practice in spaces of transit such as streets and public transportation—creates a mode of spatiotemporal engagement encompassing dialogism, negotiation, practices of solidarity, and power conflicts surrounding political urgencies. Following this collection of accounts, I conclude the text with a series of notes derived from the reflections generated by the actions presented.
