Sabine Macher, Margarida Bettencourt and I are women artists, born in 1955 in Germany, 1962 in South Africa and 1988 in Portugal. Building upon a shared history, this piece is founded on the intergenerational encounter as a space for reciprocal learning and is nourished by the desire to weave connections between a rebelliousness with a feminine affiliation and a sense of trembling. Within this correlation, I do not perceive trembling as fear or hesitation, nor rebelliousness as confrontation, but rather as potentials to disrupt certainties and systems. I am intrigued by the exploration of a rebelliousness that operates at the level of perception and setting in motion alternative modes of functioning and understanding the world around me.<\/p>\n
Drawing inspiration from Ursula K. Le Guin’s speculative writing, which holds significance as a means of interpreting the present and suggesting a shuddering, a metaphorical and symbolic interval, we entertain the hypothesis of considering fiction as a basket. We conceive of this piece as a container, a meeting point, where we coexist with other women – artists, fictional characters, mythological and archetypal figures – who are rebels and tremor-makers. Our story intertwines with theirs. Here \u201cDue to Force Majeur\u201d sheds its legal connotation to act as a poetic engine, unleashing forces that oscillate between the inevitable, the untameable and the necessary.<\/p>\n
