co-incide suggests how different things happen at the same moment, a happening
that bring things near to other things, whereby the nearness shapes the shape
of each thing”.

shift from network
& inclusion to decolonial politics of matter discussed i.a. by Dimitris
Papadopoulos:
“This decolonial politics of matter attempts to restore justice step by
step through everyday practice (…). In politics of matter, justice becomes
ingrained in the materiality of being: in the soil, in the water, in our bodily
tissues, limbs, organs, cells, genes, and molecules. Decolonizing settler land
is one thing; decolonizing matter is another (even if they are tightly
connected).”

indigenous perspectives
such as place-thought, which Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabe scholar
Vanessa Watts describes as “a theoretical understanding of the world via a
physical embodiment.”
“Place-Thought is based upon the premise that land is
alive and thinking and that humans and non-humans derive agency through the
extensions of these thoughts.”

countryside, echoes of times when people considered that “even the stone was not a mute, passive, impersonal thing” persisted into the 20th century -
as in the saying: “when stones grew, they were soft.”Kacper Pobłocki · Chamstwo
an
invitation of Valeria
Graziano to think about artistic practices as elements of partisan social
reproduction, rooted in a pre-figurative approach transplanted from the social
justice movements to cultural/artistic sector:
prefigurative practice addresses
the “basic” phantasies that solidify “institutional objects that are never
questioned (roles, aims, modalities, economies, temporalities, etc.)”
