Aquatopia documents Harmattan Theater's ecological interventions
and traces its engagements with water-bound landscapes, colonial
histories, climate change, and public space across New York City,
Venice, Amsterdam, Lisbon, and Cochin. The volume uses Harmattan's
site-specific performances as a point of departure to consider
climate change and rising sea levels as geographical, ecological,
and urban phenomena. Instead of a collection of flat, static
surfaces, the Aquatopia atlas is animated by a disorienting,
anti-mapping strategy, producing a deterritorialized, nomadic,
fluid atlas unfolding in real time as an archive of climate change
in multidimensional, active space. The book is designed for
pedagogical access, with interludes that consolidate the learning
outcomes of the experimental theory animating each site-specific
performance. Accompanied by close descriptions of five performances
and supplemented by digital documentation available online, this
volume intervenes in discussions on climate change, urbanism, and
postcolonization/decolonialization, and contributes to
interdisciplinary studies of ecology and environmental politics,
postcolonial/decolonial theories and practices, performance studies
and aesthetics, in particular public art, and performance as
research.
