In this event, performingborders created a gathering that considers what we can do when we harness our resources, time, bodies, and care, to collectivise them. Starting from a place of lived experience, ‘Our Bodies in the Commons’ moves away from disembodied and individualised discourse around solidarity and care, towards actions and gestures that are building and maintaining collective ways of working together.

Helena Walsh’s performance responded to her contribution to the performingborders e-journal Rallying the Commons https://performingborders.live/ejournal/rallying-the-commons/
