Call Me Jonathan

Faced with the discovery of video graphic archive material from their childhood, Bárbara Lago reprograms their childhood's mythology and reflects on their body traversed by affections, fictions and the passing of time. In these intimate materials, they find a possibility of thinking about dissident sexualities, the relationship between technology and the human body, language and childhood. The images capture what cannot be named and prepare for the possibility of a fragmented and subjective metamorphosis. Jonathan/Yon is the body outside of social domestication. How does such a body grow in our contemporary societies?
