((edging)) is an exhibition of gathered ephemera, adornments, devices, tools and supports from the past 3 years of a queer performance practice at the margins of body and interface. ((edging)) is an eroticism and excavation of the edges and latencies of the body as it is pushed, collapsed, compressed, captured, choreographed. ((edging)) is a score told from the limits of legibility.((edging)) is a kiss of holy wounds across a stained greenscreen field: an analogue-digital surface of superimposition and transubstantiation.((edging)) is a hollowing-out of the representational authorities of camera, code, cock, and crosshair as bodily containers. ((edging)) is a parasitic archive, an insertion of the voided frame of image-production into the orifices of the performer. ((edging)) is breeding double-agents in the complexity of unstable, leaky boundaries.((edging)) is a precarious agency, shifting and transgressing the bounds of its predicament, telling potentials of form in a language of peripheral embodiment.

Daniel Marks
Applying a framework of queer self-esotericism to processes of entropy and feedback-looping, Marks works through collusions of performance art, poetic-didactic writing/diagram work, sculptural installation, and accumulative media archives to exhume intertextual potentialities of embodiment.
