The lecture performance addresses infrastructures of reproductive labor. Tischer performatively revisits historical diagrammatic representations of the unrealized garden city Llano del Rio in California designed by the feminist-communist architect Alice Constance Austen. The artist will reactivate this unexplored and forgotten utopia and question the spatio-temporal and material arrangement of knowledge accumulation and the possibilities and limits of its abstract form of representation.
