Lithuanian, English subtitlesMy Want of You Partakes of Me interrogates digestion as the fundamental condition for being in the world, a process of physiological, psychological, spiritual, literary and political dimensions. Multiple storylines trace the poetics of incorporation as a matter of metamorphosis and decay, the philosophy of matter and imperial conquest, industrialisation and annihilation, poetry and parenting, love and citation.

Beny Wagner is an artist, filmmaker, writer, and lecturer. Working in moving images, text, installations, and lectures, he constructs non-linear narratives that probe the ever-shifting threshold of the human body in time. He has explored themes ranging from histories of metabolism to the social and political histories of measurement standardization, the politics of waste, to histories of monsters in European science. Both artists have collaborated since 2017.
