About the installation
Violence and resistance exist side by side. For violence to reproduce and go undetected, it must be justified and normalized, and for resistance to bloom, it must be groomed out of sight. Yet, making something invisible and becoming invisible tells two completely different stories.

Quantics Antics of the Borderless Underground (QABU) is a fictional exploration of resistance from humans and more-than-humans to the (in)visible forms of violence that we call ’borders’. Borders are everywhere, grow in all directions, and so does resistance, spreading through city networks beneath our feet, hidden in plain sight, and materialzing in the most unexpected creatures and places.

Through drawings and field recordings, this installation in Constant’s window depicts possible elsewheres and elsewhens to denounce the colonial legacy of border narratives and instigate the social imagination against technofascism. Underground routes, mutant moles, and journeys across queer spacetime situate QABU and its authors within the deadly fiction of borders, made of surveillance, incarcerations, and displacements of discriminated-against bodies. Far from being an escape from structural inequality and systemic oppression, QABU’s imaginary is a call for using existing tools to break the continuum of violence collectively.

About the workshop
Before the opening, we will organize a workshop to craft a shared urban language with special powers. We will create stencils that overlap with soundscapes and turn walls into dimensional portals between cities. What kind of places would you choose or imagine in a city to be part of QABU interdimensional resistance?

Places are limited. Please register to the workshop by sending an email to imane@constantvzw.org
