Dalit Ecologies: A Presentation | Shared Ecologies: Working Methods

Описание: Info:

Shared Ecologies aims to invite and engage a network of practitioners and encourage thinking across singular art practices towards correlational work with the possibility for collaboration and exchange. In order to facilitate such sites for discussion, we aim to initiate and disseminate programs, talks and workshops that can engage a wide range of practitioners. Every six months, we organise in-person and hybrid events to initiate conversations within our immediate community and reach out to practitioners outside of our current cohort. This was the first event of its kind.

The internal round of presentations was followed by a keynote lecture by Prof. Mukul Sharma, in conversation with Premjish Achari.
