VisArts Exhibition - Fargo Tbakhi: ANTIGONE. VELOCITY. SALT.

February 4 – February 27
Common Ground Gallery

ANTIGONE. VELOCITY. SALT. is a staging ground for new myths; a book of poetry; a ramshackle shroud of language and grief; an invitation into a wider mourning. Using found and natural materials alongside audio recordings of a fragmented poetic retelling to create a stage for co-created performative interventions and activations, ANTIGONE. VELOCITY. SALT. offers the frame of the Antigone myth to articulate the ways in which Palestinian grief is policed.
