On December 9 we invite you to some poetic clarity with the inaugural all women cohort of the first of its kind in the world Social and Environmental Arts Practice MFA created and led by artist, freedom fighter, and Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors at Prescott College. The conversation will trace the development of research / experiments by Cindy Bonaparte, Janelle Dunlap, Ilasiea Gray, Katherine Martin, Martine McDonald, Zakiyyah Modeste, Nico Paz, Shaina Simmons, and social practice choreographer and glo founder lauri stallings. Composed of notes, poetry, fragments of essays, video, archives of earlier work, and photos, together, these entwined materials create a new socio-poetic form. Who is here with us? invites a moment to sit with you and our art, field ideas, individual social practices, and story fragments, to reflect on the measures of presumed proximity with our interventions, activation sites and research subjects, and open up space for the particular intimacies and fragilities that never get written up in more conventional academic writing. Who is here with us will be guided by glo praxis + writing lead curator, Candice Thompson. glo projects and initiatives are entirely free and public.
