About
Expanding on our current exhibition Holding a Heart in Artifice by Abbas Zahedi, A Space for How to activates Zahedi's exhibition space through a series of monthly events that focus on the gallery as a point of gathering and intimate exchange.
A Space for How to invites practitioners to engage with Zahedi’s ongoing investigations into care and grief and to deliver skills and knowledge-sharing sessions. These closed sessions will offer a space of conviviality, an informal and supportive environment, to explore the themes in Zahedi’s practice as well as alternative institutional modes of collective commoning. The sessions will involve guided exercises and discussions as well as provide an opportunity for us to think about how art, galleries and the public are interconnected through mutual support systems.
In this session, writer and curator, Priya Jay will address silence around grief and grieving, as well as grief as embodied, disobedient, transgenerational and as evidence of love. There is no obligation to talk, you are welcome to just sit and listen.
