All Eyes Hear is HOLITOPIA 2023's core art performance. It is the inception, the space and nutritious substrate from where all lectures, workshops, conferences, debates and events will take place and develop.
"All Eyes Hear" is grounded in the artist's expanding archive of rituals, tools, and practices of wholing.
The shared practice invites participants to explore the fractal dimension of our realities and the non-linearity of time to co-develop languages that elevate our states of sensitivity. Recognizing our bodies as interfaces that connect beyond matter, the edition created specifically for the symposium is dedicated to the birch tree and its tongues and includes a concert and practices such as lucid dreaming and a participatory ritual-performance. In Paul's work co-shaping in the invisible realms is manifested as an artistic practice of creating relationships. It asserts that the "intelligence of the we" must be recognized, and can only be transmitted through the experience of it. Inventing and being invented simultaneously.
