RELATA Stories that create existences
relatas are the entities whose existence is possible only thanks to the relations that make them possible. That is to say, relations precede bodies, forms of existences. This term, introduced by Karen Barad, proposes the existence of bodies, beings, forms of existence in the universe, not as independent beings, but always in relation to their environment, or to other entities: forms of existence made possible by the relations that construct, form, inform and/or propitiate their origin.
"In quantum physics, no object has any position until it encounters another object, so much so that (...) not only the relation is real, but <<only the relation is real>>, because the world is made of relations long before it is made of objects." Chiara Bottici
In this encounter of Art and Science, Suratómica wants to explore creative, investigative, and/or curious processes that explore the relationships that make possible, construct, create different forms of existences. By focusing on the relationships that enable existences, from the most microscopic (examples symbiosis or quantum entanglements) to the social (examples the narratives and social relationships that form our bodies), geographical (how the geography where entities exist shapes them), universal (how each photon of the sun is necessary for the growth of plants), we propose a space where hierarchies, scales, dualisms and taxonomies cease to exist, and we see ourselves (and the world) as bodies and related forms of existence, as narratives.
