Under Seaveillance Fabric Printing Workshop

Not sure what to wear to protest karaoke, or simply want to join us in some cathartic fabric printing. Float along to our Under Seaveillance themed fabric printing session where you can create a lino printed textile to embellish your aquatic attire as we reclaim our sense of belonging from the tide of digital sea-veillance and the endless alienated grind.

Cathartic Choruses: Strategies of Resistance and Resilience in Art Practice

Panel with members of Array and invited artists, including Leigh Davis and Pablo Helguera, to discuss varying strategies of protest and catharsis in art practice, e.g., how using performative elements such as song, chanting, keening, and karaoke can work to both disconcert the oppressor and encourage collective solidarity among allies.

Please note that this will be an interactive panel event. Guests will be invited to engage in discussions and respond to prompts from the event hosts.

4pm // Free admission

Under Seaveillance Protest Karaoke
With guest performer Viva Ruiz

Join us for a night to remember and dress up in your finest aquatic attire as we navigate the seas of change. Become part of our world as our hosts dazzle you with their favorite protest songs and invite you to take the mic, letting your heart go on and professing anything that aims to unite in shoals of solidarity or refuse the shackles of shame.

Sea-themed protest apparel is optional but encouraged. Digital pirates; urchins of the deep; sirens of the streets; pearls of the proletariat welcome!

Submit a song for the Under Seaveillance Protest Karaoke Songbook here.

7:30pm // $23 (inclusive of fees)

The Workshop, Symposium, and Karaoke are presented with generous support from the Arts Council of Northern Ireland, Arts and Humanities Research Council UK, and Belfast School of Art at Ulster University.
