Veranstaltungsbeschreibung: In this 6 block seminar, we look at a few examples of embodiment in histories of ghosts, queer theory and
amerindian cosmologies as a strategy to think of one’s own work. We will interpret the current social and
work restrictions as part of a larger crisis, one that was already among us and has been assuming new
forms: colonial violence, racial capitalism, environmental exploitation, global pandemic – if the crisis shape
shifts into new forms, how can we understand one’s own work in this process of constant becoming within it?
Based on the idea of shapeshifting, present in different people’s imaginaries across space and time, the
seminar will culminate in the transformation of the participant’s existing works into ‘new bodies’. The focus
being the unphysical realm and alternative modes of connecting beyond physicality in other modes of
showing work. The studio, the streets, the museum, the screen – how to understand one’s practice and its
potential in assuming new forms under new conditions.
The course consists of 6 sessions + final presentation. In the first three sessions we will discuss topics
pertaining the idea of the phantasmic departing from a screening and previously selected reading material.
The remaining sessions are individual and group critique, accompanied by the analysis of a previously
selected art practice. In these sessions we will plan alternative shapes for the participant’s work, to be
exhibited at the end of the semester.
*in order to register please send an email to: email@lucasodahara.com until October 30th.
All materials for the sessions as well as communication and meeting links will be provided through email.

The dates, time, place and modes of meeting listed below are susceptible to change, depending on the crisis
demands and the participants requirements. This will be an open negotiation and will be communicated with
enough time before each session. For the sessions in person there will be a limit of 10 people in the room
(digital participation for those sessions will also be made available).
