In an era of unchecked momentum, from the Industrial Revolution to today’s AI arms race, efficiency and profit are valued over life itself. We are being turned into batteries for a machine that demands endless consumption, while climate sacrifice zones keep expanding.Join Human Impacts Institute's Urban Environmental Health Fellows' Hui-Ying Tsai and Kjerstin Rossi for a performance of food preparation; at the end of the night, if all goes well, we’ll turn our hard-earned harvest into rice balls to go.Come tell us what you insist on protecting, lend a hand, share your voice, and take home a piece of collective resistance. When we refuse together, titans can fall.Fellows' Bio:Hui-Ying Tsai is an interdisciplinary artist based in Brooklyn and Taipei. Her practice centers on installation, site-specific performance, community engagement, and relational soundscapes, investigating the conductive mechanisms between body, matter, ecology, and spirituality. Approaching physical matter as a repository of labor, environmental shifts, and collective memory, Tsai parallels folk rituals with contemporary symbolism and technology through bodily experiences in public realms.Kjerstin Rossi (b. 1983, Beijing, China) is a filmmaker who grew up in the Redwoods of California and lives in New York City. Working collectively and sharing skills is an intrinsic part of her practice and she continues to prioritize working with other queer filmmakers and artists. Kjerstin is passionate about facilitating the stories that urgently need to be told to make sense of our rapidly changing world.Please note:Kjerstin will set up to receive your words and photographs to be defended in a collective safe hold. What you bring will not be made public.The performance will be documented as a performance archive; by participating, you grant Hui-Ying Tsai non-commercial use.Right to Opt Out: You retain the full right to refuse being documented and still participate in the evening.
