From ‘Displacements’ to ‘In Flux’— Challenging Narratives through Artistic Experimentation
Independent visual artist and photographer Marie Ange Bordas presents some of her previous work and projects amongst refuge communities to explore how her perception on narrative building has been evolving through the years and how her key concerns have moved from ‘displacements’ to ‘in flux’. She will share her dialogic and participatory approach in her search for intimacy between her own subjectivity, the people involved in her projects, and the public. Dealing with issues of displacement, memory, loss and recovery, Marie Ange articulates the individual and collective through personal experiences and its social implications, trying to create space for discussion. The format for the webinar will be a presentation and Q & A.
