Public workshop
How to mediate the banal? Inspired by Heather Davis’s forthcoming piece, Banal Violence: Breathing Plastic Air, this two-day workshop—organized by grad students from the Speculative Life research cluster at Concordia’s Milieux Institute—invites participants to investigate materiality as both object and method of study. Together, we will engage using critical walking, cartography, microscopy & biomaterial imprints.
The workshop is free, no experience is required. Max of 20 participants.
Interested participants must register online.
