About

We aim to subvert orthodoxy through exposing its structure, a structure that depends upon the many ruled by the few. The Monarch and the clergymen were still are the leading force of power and authority over western society. America being the power plant that it is, elected(?) Trump, Trump through populist manipulation became president, the values, and characteristics that are present in the hierarchical power of the monarch and clergymen are still at play, if anything solidified through a monotheist body, Brexit is one of many results created by cultural hegemony. 

The queen’s indifference to Trump’s visit, a guise? seemingly supporting the many. Another of Trump's public visits was with the Pope, again, photographs allude to the pope's dismay (papers in support of selling to the many). But both agree to meet and greet him, why? Maybe it affirms their position of power?  Orthodoxy is still based on a monotheist, 'hereditary' driven structure, one that supports capitalism. 

We aim to challenge what’s at play here and subvert hierarchical structures, making it visible in order to undermine it.  We will look at themes such as whiteness, Christianity, masculinity, clowning and alternative models that encourage discourse, unity and cross dialogue with Brussels. We aim to build bridges, through dismantling ideas of hierarchy. 

Our live art event is influenced by the works of Nietzche Thus spoke Zarathustra,  Karl Marx's Theories: Class Differentiation and Revolution, Socialism & Capitalism, Chau Kwan Yat's Subverting Orthodoxy, Richard Dyer's White and Nell Irvin Painter's book The History of White People and through the body we aim to provoke new strategies of communication, freedom of speech and alternative modes of thinking.
