The ever-shifting realities of contemporary power structures, whose operations increasingly destabilise and harm the world at large, produce a fragile present and an uncertain future. These conditions permeate every space and dimension of life. Within this context, resistance movements emerge globally through the fluid participation of individuals, unbound by hierarchical structures or centralised platforms. Resistance thus becomes a self-reflexive practice, continually reconfiguring itself into temporary collective oppositional formations.

The HUB is a space to start a practice of collaboration as performance through a series of open-ended acts. These acts unfold in response to actual circumstances, occur amorphously, and are inherently transformative. The HUB is dedicated to generating shared experiences through diverse modes of doing, guided by the performative principles of mobility, fluidity, ephemerality, repetition, contingency, and indeterminacy.

At its core, the HUB investigates the perception of time and the self-reflexive nature of embodied experience, in which awareness evolves continuously within the constant flow of acts. Each participant explores the dynamic relationship between the mode of doing and time within the framework of their own practice, simultaneously embracing non-knowledge and non-representation. The space remains open to new areas of exploration that may arise through this process.

Participation in the HUB fosters a trans-local exchange of experiences, grounded in the idea of sharing transformational processes generated within the group. These processes may take any form in performance and are not expected to be finalised. Rather, the seeds planted will continue to evolve long after the conclusion of the acts.
