Inspired by Hakim Bey's “Overcoming Tourism,” the Pollinators/Peregrini seek to revive ritual pilgrimage as a unique mode of cultural travel, where the journey is as important as reaching the sacred goal. Itinerant performers who make the road their means of cultural expression, the Pollinators embark on a possible future where ethics, ritual, and a sense of the sacred are re-embedded in daily life. The modus operandi is that of ancient pilgrims, summoning the potential of new technologies in an old world, travelling through inner, outer and virtual space, taking contemporary artistic practice on the road and reinvigorating those they encounter along the way.
