Easy Asylum Booth ‘Bundu Edition’

About:
Supercharger-blown collective offers ‘Easy Asylum Booth ‘Bundu Edition’’, a satirical and situation specific presentation which interrogates European asylum policies, (and attitudes to immigration as a whole) by inverting hegemonic narratives. The collective uses provocative spectacle as a vehicle to facilitate social engagement, partying, shisha smoking, music and political dialogue.
Easy Asylum Booth ‘Bundu Edition’ is another chapter in the shifting, magical-real vision derived from the fictitious nation of Botrovia. The booth is a ‘pop up embassy’ offering instant refugee status to anyone seeking asylum in Botrovia. Applicants just need to demonstrate their loyalty by offering 7 x 7cm of their skin for a tattoo specially chosen for them by Skin of our Skin (SooS®), the Botrovian Ministry of Immigration and executed by a flying robotic tattoo gun.
Benefits to refugee status include a direct telephone connection with the Botrovian Leader (‘Our Leader is Available’); Training in ‘DASHT (Drone Asylum Seeker Herding Techniques)’ with a fully featured computer game; a lifetime subscription to ‘Botrovian Seeker (Your Guide to Asylum Success)’ plus access to numerous helpful and supportive infographics, interviews and seminars.
Partnerships
Easy Asylum Booth, ‘Bundu Edition’ is produced in partnership with Oasis Cardiff, the refugee and asylum seeker charity and the arts charity Axisweb. Arts Council of Wales supported the inception and early development of Easy Asylum Booth—‘Bundu Edition’.
