Roundtable with Dabke Artist Wael Buhaissy, Assistant Professor Umayyah Cable, Dance Scholar/Performer Leila Mire & Sound Artist/Choreographer Leyya Mona Tawil.
Moderated by Curator/Associate Professor Clare Croft.
Artmaking is always an experiment – a testing of possibilities meant to create new meanings or forms and/or to teach audiences new ways of looking. Artistic experiments also often re-imagine pre-existing forms and histories and bring these into new spaces or moments in time. This roundtable brings together artists working in film, dance, and sound whose experimentations focus on bringing attention to important themes of Palestinian life, joy, and resistance.
Wednesday, December 4th
