How can breath be reclaimed from the forces that imperil it? Can breath be cultivated and shared? These are just some of the motivations that guide this project – exploring breath and breathing as a universal right, a form of interconnectedness and a future paradigm.

With breathing in crisis, our existence as a respiratory species is becoming increasingly precarious and inequitable. This project speculates on what it means to breathe, in an era when breath itself can no longer be taken for granted.

Tomorrow, Dec 21, 12pm ET online and free: We welcome back Kalpana Subramanian for an artist talk on her in-progress project Breath Worlds – an interdisciplinary project composed of sound works, emerging technologies, moving image and performance. squeaky.org/event/work-in-…
