These research-workshops explore questions that are integral to our interdisciplinary and collaborative practice. How do individuals come together to build a world? How do we work toward a common vision while embracing plurality? How do we exercise choice and agency, while allowing others to do the same? What role do consent, negotiation, surrender, trust, and faith play in acts of collective decision making?<br><br>This presentation also offers a glimpse into Brack\u2019s research as part of their participation in The&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.substation.org\/aap-exhibition\" target=\"_blank\">Substation Associate Artist Program<\/a>&nbsp;2020-2021.

They are interested in practices of gathering, and in dialogical exchanges across mediums, disciplines, and communities. They seek to understand how socially-engaged art can activate a space, community, or society, and we experiment with these very activations\u2014through audience engagement, writing, and working with artists. Aside from this online gathering space, our works manifest as exhibitions, talks, workshops, dialogues , and collaborations with local and international practitioners, in our effort to forge an alternative praxis within artist-audience dynamics.<br><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.brack.sg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.brack.sg<\/a><br><br><strong>ARH Talks: Practice-Based Speakers Series<\/strong>&nbsp;is a new series to feature artists with something to share about their practice in the arts. It is about the sharing of experiences and works with fellow arts freelancers and the self-employed in the arts, to expand our collective world of knowledge and applications we have as a community. Starting in May 2020, this will be a regular affair to introduce artists and their different practices to you, and hopefully to inspire us to think deeper and broader in our craft.<br><br><em>*This talk is open to ARH Subscribers only, please&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsresourcehub.sg\/subscribe\">register<\/a>&nbsp;as a subscriber if you are interested<\/em>.<br><br><strong>Register your attendance&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsresourcehub.sg\/events\/event-registration\">here<\/a>!<\/strong><br><br>For enquiries, please write in to us&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:artsresourcehub@nac.gov.sg\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To Gathering: On Collaborative Play and Co-Creationwith artists&nbsp;Alecia Neo,&nbsp;Kei Franklin&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;Jevon Chandra&nbsp;(Brack)2 July 2020 (Thursday)7.30pm \u2013 9.30pmZoom Brack presents reflections on a series of research-workshops conducted over the past year.
