Since 2014 The Feeling Body has been bringing artists into dialogue with the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) and its radioactive “clean-up” sites, where plutonium-contaminated waste remains buried directly above the Snake River Aquifer. This year’s project, Holding What Can’t Be Held 2023, began in the spring of 2022, with a tour of the INL’s new reactor development program. Artists will share work inspired by the site, its contaminated ground, and its compulsive striving to vindicate the industry by way of creating a technological Holy Grail, even though every new design runs up against the same problems – their exorbitant expense, their dependence on large amounts of water, and the fact that no one knows what to do with the waste – a substance whose toxicity extends beyond the reach of linear thought, outlasting any container we could manufacture and any symbol we might create.

explores the possessive “My” through narratives, art and sound. Every Monday, we publish a new audio, performance or experimental piece where only one rule applies:  the title must begin with the determiner “My”.

My___on Mondays Episode 99: The Owl And The Grasshopper, from The Aesop For Children, Illustrated by Milo Winter, 1919.
