The Public and Touch

November 22-23
Public Pedagogies Institute Conference 2018
Footscray, Melbourne

This special program will take place over two days, beginning with a panel discussion on Thursday at 3.30pm, that invites you to join the conversation on the theme of The Public and Touch with the program creators: Raffaele Rufo, Paul Carter, Maya Ward, Elian Sellanes, Clare Walton, Merinda Kelly, Soraya Mobayad, Shelley Hannigan.

An ecological sensibility runs through the group, and so does a sensibility to the issues of migration, coloniality and the embodied imageries of indigenous Australia. The contributors to this session are creative practice-led researchers, and writers or creators of bodily or musical or visual performances.

There is a common thread with the potential for collaboration, discovery and change, as ways of finding and changing the place of our body in the material fabrics of the world.

This program will include presentations, exhibition, performance, workshop, and screenings.

This session is part of:
