ABOUT:

Welcome to the Molecular Queering Agency. We are the agency responsible for the industrial alienation of the human, non-human, and the planetary. The molecular colonization of endocrine disrupting compounds asks us to acknowledge our bodies as changeable, mutable, and responsive with the environment. We invite you to join a 10-person (socially-distanced) disobedience ritual designed to neutralize your eco-heteronormative fears around our collective alien becoming. We ask you to be loyal representatives of MQA and carry out this performance with a sample of your own urine. You will also be dressed in MQA uniforms and guided through simple choreography that is part-science and part-witchcraft. The uniforms include a plastic oxygen mask that may slightly limit airflow. The performance will be English-speaking and photo documented, and may be attended by a larger public audience. All uniforms and equipment will be sanitized for the performance.

 

Mary Maggic

Mary Maggic (b. Los Angeles, '91) is a non-binary artist working at the intersection of cultural discourse, body and gender politics and ecological alienations. Using biohacking and public amateurism as a critical practice of care, Maggic investigates the micro-performativity of hormones and works collaboratively to demystify their molecular colonization. Maggic is a current member of the online network Hackteria: Open Source Biological Art and the laboratory theater collective Aliens in Green, the Asian artist collective Mai Ling Vienna, as well as a contributor to the radical syllabus project Pirate Care and to the online CyberFeminism Index.
