Dignified Life: Outliving Impossible Ecologies

Join us as we launch the new digital publication Dignified Life: Outliving Impossible Ecologies. The event will premiere Shada Safadi’s newly commissioned video work The Wind Ropes. It will also feature a conversation with contributors Munira Khayyat and Public Works, followed by a live sound performance by Afram Chamoun.

Dignified Life: Outliving Impossible Ecologies confronts the ongoing colonial violence in Lebanon, Palestine and the Golan examining how these assaults — cyclical, escalating, and systemic — have devastated not only human lives but also the ecological and social fabric of the region. Through the interdisciplinary work of artists, researchers and writers, the digital publication also reveals how life insists despite perpetual conditions of indignity and destruction.

This event is a collaboration between The Mosaic Rooms and Beirut Art Center. Supported by Art Jameel and British Council through Anhar: Culture and Climate Platform.

This event is free and open to all. No RSVP needed.
