Artists' conversation and performance by Dubmorphology with special guest Aniruddha Das.
Arts Catalyst presents an in-conversation with Dreamed Native Ancestry (DNA) artists Gary Stewart and Zaynab Bunsie and curator Nicola Triscott. The artists will talk about the ideas underlying their ongoing collaboration Mission//Misplaced Memory and the current installation and project at Arts Catalyst which explores and collects traces of migrant culture wisdom in London in 2017.
The talk will be followed by a performance by Dubmorphology (sound and visual artists), who will take migrant memories, stories and wisdom and 'remix' these into futuristic sonic and visual projections. For this special event, Dubmorphology is joined by Aniruddha Das (a.k.a. Dr Das), co-founder of Asian Dub Foundation.
Dreamed Native Ancestry (DNA) is an installation and programme critically addressing and re-thinking contemporary issues around race, migration, biopolitics and culture, through an Afrofuturist science fiction narrative and deep history perspective.
