Know Thy Neighbour #3: After hours opening with Santoor live performance

On Wednesday 22 March from 7-7.30pm, Spaced is pleased to be facilitating an after-hours opening of the currently installed exhibition Know Thy Neighbour #3 exhibition, activated with a live performance.

Know Thy Neighbour #3 is a provocation to the familiarity of place, asking communities to step outside of familiar engagements and locations; to seek out scenarios or contexts that defamiliarize and recontextualise "the local" for audiences, communities, or the artists themselves and ask how we can meaningfully engage in the making of our cities.

Ashkaan Hadi, will play Santoor durationally in conversation with the archives of his sisters work during her residency with the Victoria Park Community Centre. This is an intimate conversation between the two, as Elham’s reflections with St. Mary’s Outreach Service, she questioned the idea of home being a place or a feeling. The live performance is an active initiation of this.

All are welcome to join, however please RSVP via the Facebook event.
