ACT III Erin Honeycutt: The Secret Life of Ekphrasis

This workshop, led by Saverio Cantoni and Erin Honeycutt, takes ekphrasis as a methodology, a practice of translation between senses, mediums, and forms of attention. Taking its cue from Stevie Wonder's Journey Through "The Secret Life of Plants" a soundtrack composed from written descriptions of a documentary never fully seen, they ask what travels when one sense hands its information to another, and what is necessarily lost, transformed, or invented in the crossing? Transcriptions will be written into a shared score, using Nina Paszkowski’s Furore exhibition as a guide, followed by a performance by Cru Encarnação. Erin Honeycutt is a writer and bookmaker based in Berlin, where they run CUTT PRESS, a publishing project exploring the materiality of writing. They are the author of Dear Enheduanna (2025) and Night School (2026), as well as various zines and novelettes. Cru Encarnação is a performance artist and writer based between Berlin and Portugal. Their practice explores masculinity, stage magic, the history of science and trans discourse, focusing on mechanisms of wonder, illusion, deception and belief. Saverio Cantoni is a white-passing oral–Deaf artist based in Berlin. Working with sonics, haptic experiences and assistive technologies, their practice explores the “aesthetics of access” through text, visuals and audible experiences.
