The Exhausted Activist Project
by Vishnu Vardhani
29 February — 2 March 2020
Myymälä 2
Uudenmaankatu 23 F
Helsinki, Finland
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Exhausted Activist Project with Vishnu Vardhani is centred around setting up a pop-up nap cafe, a space for people to rest but which also challenges the perceived norms of 'work-hours' in order to bring back the culture of taking naps and resting. The purpose of this project is to investigate the neuro-politics of rest and especially sleep.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Exhausted Activist project aims to consider several questions about how we deal with rest as a society, namely:
Can reparations for people match the rapidity of technological growth?
Can rethinking rest in times of high productivity lead to a boom?
Can doing nothing become a rebellion to the ideologies of capitalism?
How do passive bodies rest?
Can self-care and un-work be tools for mental health?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
During the 41 hours of performance, the artist will explore the conflict between public and private, openness and enclosure.
This episode of the project approaches to confront “on show,” as a private activity becoming almost performative. Still and all the security of the locked gate allows for a moment of solitude, reflection and a chance to relax in the gallery.
