This event is part of Care and Knowledge Cannot Exist Without Struggle, Goldsmiths BA Curating’s 3rd year Public Programme and Launch Events, Summer 2020
“MAPPING AUTONOMOUS SPACES”: DIY Space for London in conversation with Ginevra Naldini, third year student of Goldsmiths BA Curating.This event will be a conversation-based workshop addressing the challenges and potentialities of collective work within autonomous cultural institutions in South East London. Mapping the body, the institution and the community we will discuss how these intersect and inform each other? What impact do these dynamics have on our mental and physical wellbeing? How do we organise for social transformation through artistic practices and spaces? Bring an object to the discussion, this will work as material witness of your collaborative experiences and as introductory activity!DIY Space For London is a cooperatively-run social centre located in South London, just off Old Kent Road. They offer low cost creative facilities, meeting rooms and social space as well as space for screenings, talks and performances. They run on a members’ club model so that everyone has equal say in how the place is run. The space works to promote the ideas of mutual aid (helping each other) and cooperation (working together). Providing a welcoming space for everyone, including those whose voices and contributions are not always heard or appreciated, is a top priority for DIY.
This is the Eventbrite link, the event will be hosted via zoom.
