About this Event
‘When I think of entanglement, I think of how ideas are smuggled across borders; their smuggling makes both the violent border politics and the forms of resistance that refuse them palpable. I think about relations, binds, networks, flight paths and surprising solidarities – many of these gathered in this iteration of the journal.’
– Diana Damian Martin, Foreword, Entangled Practices: Embodying Cross-Border Live Art
Join performingborders for the launch of Entangled Practices: Embodying cross-border live art in its new limited-edition print format.
Come for an evening of discussion, reading-out, listening and sharings from setareh fatehi and Fehras Publishing Practices, contributors to the project who will be joining digitally.
Entangled Practices is performingborders’ third e-journal, initially published online and now available in print. In this publication an expanded horizon of shared methodologies comes into view – rooted in territories, struggles, and ecologies where the dynamics of resistance, collaboration and organising offer new possibilities for creative approaches. This evening is a rare opportunity to engage with live artists whose practice in cross-border collaboration, digitality and archives, unfolds questions and challenges to dominant narratives and envision new forms of solidarity and survival.
setareh fatehi will share from their commission ‘parallaxing (i): a story of a practice’, a new hybrid-digital approach questioning the demands for physical presence and reflecting on what it means to be, think from, and exist in many places at once. Fehras Publishing Practices will share from their commission ‘Love Letters to Our Comrades’. Exploring relationships across time and the way internationalist practices of solidarity can be found in the archive, this commission includes a precious look at LOTUS: Afro-Asian Writings, the quarterly review of the Permanent Bureau of Afro-Asian Writers Association.
The space will be hosted by performingborders and Diana Damian Martin, co-editor of the journal.
Attendees will receive a free copy of the print version of the journal and can enjoy a warm dinner and drinks on the night, all free.
This event is presented by performingborders in collaboration with the Live Art Development Agency.
