I know she is light and faithless / there is someone in the shadows/ flip-flops and changes / I bathed my snow skin / in a coral castle / fragrant plums breathe / waiting for the spring / pink air and an ocean of jelly fish

We choose the birds' language
Eva Posas
‘We choose the birds' language’ by Eva Posas, is a performative reading event held at The Women’s Building.
‘We choose the birds' language’ is formed as a participatory reading, where Posas’ was guiding us to connect and explore the parameters of language through sound. Posas work explores the immateriality of language, identity and memory in relation to Zapotec culture, and this reading event is connected to her ongoing research project Phantom Languages. As part of ‘We choose the birds' language’ Posas has made a selection of literature that will enter into ARIEL ARCHIVE.
With this event we also mark our farewell to ARIEL’s exhibition platform and presence in the Women's Building but not to the project at large. We're thankful for all the wonderful memories we take with us –– all the exhibitions and readings that the artist bestowed upon us these last three years. We hope to see friends, colleagues, and newcomers at all the future projects to come.
We want to express our utmost gratitude to all artists, guest-curators and collaborators that we had the pleasure to work with through the first and second exhibition cycle at The Women's Building.
At the event it will be possible to buy publications from ARIEL PRESS, look through and lend books with you home for the summer from ARIEL ARCHIVE and sign-up to follow our reading group ARI. Readings, as well as our future exhibition and collaborative projects in Denmark and abroad.

Biography:
Eva Posas (1985, Mexico) is a curator. Working across curatorial and editorial boundaries, she is interested in the immateriality of language, Zapotec culture, identity and memory as a form of production.
In past projects her work investigated publishing as an articulation of social complexities, storytelling as a form of curating, the crossing between public and private spaces and the politics of subtleness as a subversive methodology through exhibitions, pedagogical programs, books and public art projects. From 2020 to 2021 she was curator- in-residence at Jan Van Eyck Academy. She was co-curator with Mônica Hoff of the theory, art and technology program Materia Abierta and works on a book about her research Phantom Languages.
ARIEL - Feminism in the Aesthetic is a nomadic platform for intersectional feminist practices, originally situated in the Women's Building. ARIEL is a mobile and digital archive, publishing house and exhibition project, committed to supporting existing and facilitating new structures for care and sustainable collaborative practices, expanding notions on equity and the eco-commons through feminist curatorial practice and research.
Directed by Karen Vestergaard Andersen and Nina Wöhlk, in collaboration with Helen Nishijo and Frederikke Granvig.

ARIEL – FEMINISMS IN THE AESTHETICS is a nomadic platform for curation and learning.
We engage with the personal, bodily, environmental and political ramifications of an unjust world and facilitate meeting points between institutions, practices and people across contexts and generations.
As a nomadic platform we are continuously seeking new relations, contexts and a deepening of knowledge. Our hope is to keep learning and collaborate to further broaden ARIEL’s feminist curatorial practice and research.
ARIEL consists of Nina Wöhlk, Leandro Ferre Caetano and Frederikke Planck Granvig.

THE WOMEN'S BUILDING
ARIEL – Feminisms in the Aesthetics was founded in collaboration with the Women’s Building.
From 2019-2022 ARIEL hosted a diverse program of exhibitions available to the public 24/7 with the aim of building upon the groundbreaking work done by The Women’s Building.
By joining hands and contribute to the public discourse a multidisciplinary environment, that would reflect and support the many initiatives and organizations in the building, was assembled:
Danish Women’s Society, Intercultural Women’s Council, Women’s Artists’ Society, Women’s Council, Women in Music, Folkevirke and KFUK’s Social Work.
