How do we listen to images rather than simply look at them? In what ways might our manipulations of images make the unseen, the unheard, and the unspoken visible?
Over the course of a three-day workshop, participants will engage with Troy Montes Michie's exhibition The Jawbone Sings Blue, learn about scrapbooking, and develop their own version of a personal archive using different image manipulation techniques.
Participants will explore topics such as cultural representation, race, queerness, and power structures in society by drawing inspiration from Michie's artistic practice and feminist theories by Tina Campt. This includes her approach to "listening" to images through sensation, sound, and emotional resonance.
At the end of the preceding workshop sessions, participants will have the opportunity to present their works as part of a small exhibition in the foyer of the Kunsthalle Basel. The evening will be accompanied by an aperitif.
