RUINS PART I: redux. realms. regards

RUINS PART I: redux. realms. regards. is a 3-hour performative encounter between Liz Rosenfeld
and an*dre neely, which follows their continuous collaboration entitled “RUINS” — an open and multidisciplinary project which combines research, film, performance and writing to explore the
collapse in queer political and social resistance. This new iteration, expanded from PART I, will focus
on the choreographic language of the Handshake, highlighting how, historically, queer persons
found affinity and built non-verbal discourses, referencing cruising stories and bodily codifications
essential for the relations of desire.

The handshake appeals to secretive forces, in a broad analysis and a counter position to the
position of Visibility = Liberation which queer rights and social movements in general seem to have accepted uncritically. In this manner, these choreographies of handshakes are constructed
through the scores we develop with other queer people, performing them between us, as conduits
for muites corpes, thereby exploring the power of transference between bodies that depend on
others.



Liz Rosenfeld Liz Rosenfeld (Berlin/London) is a trans-disciplinary artist. She works in performance, the moving
image, drawing and experimental writing. In her work, Liz explores political and emotional ecologies, cruising methodologies and the "queering" of memory. By focusing on desire and the flesh as collaborative and non-binary materials, Liz explores physical abundance and the responsibility to occupy space. Her writing, autotheoretical in tone, tackles queer ontologies and the hypocrisy of desire.
an*dre neely yan*dre neely works with the critical and artistic practices of space, media, text and performance.
Based on a strong interest in collaboration, his work springs from the relational field as impetus for
exploring the esthetics and narratives of intimacy, privacy and security, not only within the personal
and affective, but also the social and political realms. Since 2023, an*dre has been Associate Producer of the Queer Performance MA at Rose Bruford College.
Born in Lisbon, they lives and works between Berlin and London.
