THE SEER: HUMAN?
THE SEER aka. Conny Prantera has built a striking career in illustration, video art, music and multimedia work, sewing a rich tapestry that ties contemporary experimental forms with the long tradition of female visionary art. Her creations are full of dark meditations on man's relationship to the natural world and the historical vanquishing of matriarchal systems; it draws its lineage from magic and esotericism by means of dreamwork, poetry and intimate confession. She will be presenting a brand new performance entitled THE SEER: HUMAN?
