Sophie Sleigh-Johnson

Installation #10 - 4 May 2017

Procijep presents scenes from a mystery tableau of archaeopsychic speleology through the chthonic in-tuning of the female. Manifesting invisible frequencies of Artemis' blush, the performance grapples with the excess of language in a voice glimpsed between two worlds. In the heat of femininencryption is a silenced condensation of psychic possession, the forest after the Bogomils.

The performance was followed by a conversation between Sophie Sleigh-Johnson and Professor Timothy Morton.
