Charles de Agustin’s moving image-, performance-, and text-based work contends with critique, complicity; the moment you stop yourself from saying something; listen to noise, overwhelm; bewildered white people; a pollution, a possession, a primary source; show your panic, contempt; maintain a sense of humour, suspicion of efficiency; where storytelling and punctuation begin to implode.
