The unfinished receptacle and its strands: connection, collaboration, collective making

Join us in exploring our collective futures, amidst original work by students and by Brazil’s Kaingang Indigenous community, in response to themes of water and natureas climate and social justice provocations.

A digital artefact will narrate this live story, going on to weave in your contributions. Through the unfinished Kaingang basket as a physical and metaphoric receptacle, we explore its strands and webs of interconnected humans, the living world and our practices. Spaces of encounter, and community-led learnings will steer co-imagination - animated by senses and spirit.

Dr Seher Mirza will lead a participatory three-part activity, centering our body, hands and perspectives. These responses will be added to the digital artefact through recordings including your own short sound or video vignettes, contributing to the sense of the circle or spiral as an evolving container for our collective futures. Finally, we will weave our responses into the Kaingang basket.

Two 1.5 hour sessions are available with limited spaces:

12:00pm - 1:30pm

2:30pm - 4:00pm

This event will take place at British Council, in the Prince of Wales suite.
