I Refuse
My work explores 'care' as a shared, political practice, not a private burden or institutional service, but a form of commoning grounded in solidarity, reciprocity and resistance.
Care, in this context, is not neutral. It is conditional distributed unevenly and tied to moral judgments about who is deserving and who is not.
I explore care as both exhaustion and insistence, as something withheld by institutions but continually reinvented in common spaces and interdependence.
I am interested in what it means to be disobedient for someone who receives care, to resist the roles assigned by systems that conflate dependence with passivity. Disobedience, in this sense, is not rejection of care itself, but a refusal to accept the terms under which it is given.
This work is open-ended, dialogical, and grounded in the belief that to truly care is to make space for difference, for refusal, and for the radical possibility of belonging without conditions.
