Mission Statement

The Push Pops are a radical, transnational queer feminist art collective. Geared toward engendering ‘Embodied Feminism,’ Go! Push Pops employs the female body – that which is bound to a cross-cultural language of desire, signification and power – in tactical, ideological strategy. Go! Push Pops utilize gesture, exclamation and popular idiom to embody a new age discursive physicality interfacing with the ancient archetypal realm. Neo-Dada, Fluxist and Feminist, their performance work posits the body as a danger to the operation of reason and patriarchal economy of lack. A wild leap, an elusive slogan, a paroxysm of the flesh – The Push Pops reinscribe the body through participatory ritual, spontaneous performance and interactive multi-media installation.

Fugitives of gravity, The Push Pops land on the moon wielding a hybrid red white and blue flag, a diamond-shaped amalgam of the flags of their respective countries of

origin - Russia, Chile and the United States. The Push Pops Land on the Moon in a gesture of co-ownership, co-authorship and radical multiplicity. Landing in tandem to footage of Armstrong's fictitious voyage, the Push Pop's skirt media dissolution, projecting a powerful neo-narrative onto a cross cultural blind spot. Characteristically utopic and feminist, this project erects a matrix of important questions concerning the content of border zones, behaviors, bodies and territories in space. Who sings the nation state? Who sings the universe? Who sings the moon? Following the planting of their flag the
