      • Transnational adoptions are shaped by cultural, economic, legal, and social conditions. The EP “In Absence Of (Experience Creole)” shows how this practice, which has existed since the 20th century, can affect bodies and what resistance strategies and narratives these bodies find. The literary text, respectively the lyrics, of the EP prance along a bizarre horror story and its consequences, culminating in seductive ecstasy. It marks three ways of dealing with the colonial adoption experience: exaggeration, inversion, and refusal.

        Nicolas Walker da Silva’s practice investigates the nexus of capital, race and technology. The project aims to deconstruct colonial-racial techniques of violence for profit and death, and to imagine and generate anti-colonial possibilities for liberation. Working across film, literature, sculpture and sound, Walker da Silva employs methods of political geography and cultural analysis. The practice is a study of the complexities and tensions between these issues, and a program for exploding the collective imagination.
