Hurricane
By Emma Hall and Vidya Rajan
“At some time in the future, and by future I mean time not yet past, the lights will gradually fade. The ground will shake. There will be a howling. Some time in the darkness. We can’t say how long. You may feel some discomfort… You may hear screams. It will be over very quickly. It’s a leap. You are all about to take this leap, together.”
Vidya is influenced by Hindu philosophy, which tells us that all life is suffering, the human story is the story of ego, and we are living in the end times. Emma grew up reading John Stuart Mill, and believing that if we only saved our pennies and paid our taxes, the future would be bright.
Inspired by Alexandria Ortasio-Cortez, the pop star M.I.A., and the swirling mess that is anthropomorphic capitalism in a climate change era, Hurricane is a bizarre de-construction / re-destruction of the night a natural disaster came to town.
