In this performance reading, Bambitchell
continues their exploration of the legal frameworks that govern non-human
animals and objects, moving from the territorial jurisdictions explored in
their film Bugs & Beasts Before the Law (2019), to the legal realm of the
sea. Dolphins, ships and other vessels is a polyvocal narrative that spans
bodies of water. Stretching from Te Moana-o-Raukawa, to the South China Sea,
the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and the Clyde and Kaniatarowanenneh rivers,
the narrative traces the disappearance and reappearance of a dolphin, the
reincarnations of ships, and the embodiments of Jinn - as vessels, mammals,
water, myth, and law.
