You Can Smoke Me (Feminised Patriarchy’s Pyramid)
Feminizing is a patriarchal

The work is a visualization of the patriarchy dilemma stimulated continually in our social systems. It is a performative installation that contains a feminised weed plant surrounded by drawings of the five stages that Yazan Maksoiud questioned in the power systems influenced by the patriarchal theory in our society. Yazan will install his own feminised tree that was prepared to serve this kind of power agency development in our life. Here, they will be revealing an image of how our bodies were controlled to behave and grow in specific ways that serve these developments of the dominant powers in our social pyramid. On other hand, this work deals with a real plant as a medium of research and work in his art. This dead tree will be constituting a real image of the rushed life circle we all live in this big capitalistic system ruling our world nowadays. How our bodies nature is moulded to behave in these systems? What are these realities we live in?

the escalator is always rolling

Thomas L. Fontein

Every day the same game repeats itself, at the same time and place as yesterday, just with different players. Your body gets absorbed into the flow of the rush hour, while your mind is disconnected. As the train leaves the station, you take your seat in the midst of absent gazes. ‘the escalator is always rolling’ is an exploration of the mental numbness of repetition, predictability and the drag of going somewhere that doesn't fulfill you.
