SHAFT ABRE CAMINHO PALO SANTO // 

TETINE (BRUNO VERNER, ELIETE MEJORADO) + ANDERSON BORBA

Key 001 – Radioactivity is in the air for you and me 

The anti-sacred mutant tropical punk-funk aesthetics of Tetine (Bruno Verner + Eliete Mejorado) as hairy hydras who do not spell ‘A. R. T.’ - for poetic reasons many will understand one day - and London-based Brazilian (Santista) artist, sculptor Anderson Borba, bring you what (they)-(we) have been calling SHAFT ABRE CAMINHO PALO SANTO, an experiment, a no-show shout, a moment, a shellshock in the form of an ancestral cosmic futuristic weekender, or better, an anti-pompous sculptural-textual-sonic exhibit/elixir taking place at SET DALSTON on 5th of July from 6 pm – 9pm.  

SHAFT ABRE CAMINHO PALO SANTO is a re-inhabitation, re-corporification; a transitory reengineering of temporal syntactic and physical-sensorial utopian accumulations, undisciplined feelings and haunting memories, countering straight time and the current territories of neoliberal psychism, animated by the digital & analogic logics of semantico-mathematical ABCs of structures and numbers. The shout is still in process, the moment in constant movement at each hour, minute, second; tasted, sucked and then cannibalized from massive portions of distinct (and vivid) temporalities. The no-show being constantly & unregretfully practiced in the matrix, or else, uninterruptedly originated (there’s no beginnings or ends) as it manifests itself through magick, through sound (and then vision), through film, touch, sex, gozo, odour in mutant machines of lust.

From our first pulsations, 6 months ago, when the hydras collectively anticipated the expectations of such a “not-yet” cut [happening] in space and time, intensely relational with other pasts and worlds. Tarot or I Ching? 

Key 002 - We are showroom dummies.

Key 003- I'd rather be a dick than a swallower.
