Why be a slug? Slugs: A Manifesto explores a creature that survives by being disgusting. Weaving together manifesto, memoir and poetic language, Abi Palmer considers the politics of space, iridescent queerness, and shapeshifting viscous ‘slug time.’ In the face of a potential apocalypse, Slugs: A Manifesto envisions a future where humanity becomes just a little more sluglike. Abi Palmer is an artist and writer.

She uses film, text, sculpture and sensory intervention to explore sick bodies, viscous textures & ecological landscapes. Expanded edition! Includes extracts from sluggy talks with Zarina Muhamad (The White Pube, Lola Olufemi and Christie Costello (Bare Minimum Collective) and mycologist, Nathan Smith!
