Talk: Margarida Mendes, Intergenerational Soundings
Tuesday 11 October, 6:30pm
Webinar via Zoom
Researcher, curator and ecologist Margarida Mendes (joining us via Zoom) will draw from her ongoing research with river guardians and activist groups, to focus on how restorative acoustics, sonic practices and cross-disciplinary forms of eco-teaching can start a process of community healing.
Margarida Mendes is a researcher, curator and ecologist, exploring the overlap between systems thinking, experimental film, sound practices and ecopedagogy. She creates transdisciplinary forums, exhibitions and experiential works where alternative modes of education and sensing practices may catalyse political imagination and restorative action.
This event is part of the Call the Waves public programme. Call the Waves is a group exhibition and public programme which emerges from interconnected intimacies with different bodies of water, bringing together new works from artists, musicians, and historians Alia Mossalam, Bint Mbareh, Fern Thomas, Kandace Siobhan Walker, Maya Al Khaldi, and Noureddine Ezarraf. The project is co-curated by QANAT and SWAY, held collaboratively by Francesca Masoero, Louise Hobson, and Shayma Nader. Visit Call the Waves at Chapter Gallery Tuesday - Sunday, 11am - 5pm.
