What happens to our bodies after we die? Ashes pollute rivers. Buried bodies take up real estate. Bringing video and performance into intimate conversation, MukhAgni is an automythography
about a relationship in process. In a bedroom in Brooklyn, in a Calcutta charnel ground, two queer colored lovers play dead. We think we have ideas. We think we can build shit. But we’re just meat. We’re just so soft.
