Relation-making exercises: A two part workshop between the collection and lived experience

H_ME W_RK

Hosted by Vishal Kumaraswamy and critical friends, the zoom workshop will serve as a relation-making exercise between excerpts of texts in the library collection and lived realities. Imagined as a contained loop of reading plans, discussions, observations from everyday life and brought back into the subsequent reading sessions, the workshop looks at ways in which contextualised emancipatory practices can be developed that are tailored to the needs of the community in focus. Working with participants, the workshop/s encourage ways of facilitating dialogue between different hierarchical structures in the immediate environment of the participants as a collection of individual voices that highlight the importance of not reaching consensus as a form of liberation theory.
