Their name translates as \u201cwithout a head\u201d and reflects the collaborative and non-individual aspect of their collective production. The work they do consists of transmedia storytelling, where they create hybrid media cultures that activate their concerns. Told from a post-colonial, feminist and ecological perspective, these stories work as models for envisioning a world where political and cultural hierarchy, as well as rationality, are abandoned in favor of a new, creative capacity to respond to the complex environmental and cultural challenges facing our contemporary society. Their recent projects, including Kiltr@, Art Farm Revisited, and SEEDBANK, develop transmedia methodologies for multispecies storytelling using visual anthrozoology, video installation and architectural design. \u00a0In 2012, Sin Kabeza Productions was recognized for their activist arts practice through A Blade of Grass Foundation\u2019s inaugural Artist Files Fellow Program. In 2013 they spent a year working towards the rehabilitation of Indian or Pariah Dogs in Goa, India, which led to the encounter of their current canine love and companion, Matsya. Most recently they finished a documentary about their 2012 residency in Germany titled <em>Affective Encounters on and off the dOCUMENTA(13) Trai<\/em>l, which documents intense affective experiences that were mediated through unexpected narrators including themselves, the exhibition venue, d\u2019occupier Robinson Miquele, an immigrant street artist, and Eriza, an orphaned baby hedgehog that was premiered at Havana\u2019s International Festival for New Latin American Cinema. In 2015 they premiered an OPEN TV feature on Carrie, who has been called the most talented doggie dancer in the world. Currently they are working on a \u201cdogumentary\u201d and travelogue of Cuba featuring cinematography by the newest SKP collaborator, Matsya and are raising four orphaned raccoons, who are predominantly figured in the recent project Performing\u00a0Posthumanist Maternalisms, and in their investigation of \u00a0Posthumanist Design and Architecture.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1977\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1977\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1977 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/11895040_10153123131486247_3841855638423134948_o.jpg?resize=300%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"11895040_10153123131486247_3841855638423134948_o\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/11895040_10153123131486247_3841855638423134948_o.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/11895040_10153123131486247_3841855638423134948_o.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/11895040_10153123131486247_3841855638423134948_o.jpg?resize=624%2C624&amp;ssl=1 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/11895040_10153123131486247_3841855638423134948_o.jpg?w=1759&amp;ssl=1 1759w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/11895040_10153123131486247_3841855638423134948_o.jpg?w=1392&amp;ssl=1 1392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1977\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lissette Olivares becoming with raccoons under rehabilitation<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Lissette Olivares<\/strong> is an artist, activist, curator, and transmedia storyteller that is committed to speculative feminism.
