WOT x CAS x AIR: RETURN WORKSHOP 3

RETURN is a workshop series that brings artists, with ties to the south east, back to their local roots, sharing skills in different art-forms, including poetry, performance and emerging technologies at our residency spaces in Dandenong and Casey. 

This first series features artists Thabani Tshuma, JAG and Mohamed Chamas. 

The final workshop in our series is RETURN with Mohamed Chamas, Saturday November 9th. 

Mohamed Chamas spatializes inner realms, inspirited by the ‘dijital djinni’, a conduit for expression in digital media arts. Defying and responding to the military-entertainment complex, Mohamed reenchants cyberspace by drawing on their relation to personal lineage and wider contexts of magickal and divinatory practices in ancient Islamicate regions. This dis/entangles as image, sound, poetry, virtual reality (VR), installation, performance and hybrid-corrupt forms. Mohamed has exhibited at Testing Grounds, Seventh Gallery, Trocadero Art Space, Incinerator Gallery and MARS Gallery, with their literary work appearing in Running Dog, Emerging Writers Festival, Co- Magazine, The Lifted Brow, Liminal Magazine and Cordite Poetry Review.

12 — 3 pm at Connection Arts Space (Dandenong)

Includes lunch! Tix are free but bookings are essential.
