FieldARTS: Beyond Colonial Infrastructure

Centre for Contemporary Arts
350 Sauchiehall Street Glasgow G2 3JD

Join us for the closing event of FieldARTS residency, hosted by the Infrastructure Humanities Group at the Centre for Contemporary Arts, Glasgow.

Bringing a week of collaborative fieldwork to a close, this evening programme includes a keynote from Omar Jabary Salamanca on the archives of imperial and settler colonial development, opening the “black box” of infrastructure to trace unseen histories of labour, energy, and land across occupied Palestine.

Bahaleen Collective join us to present practice-research on concurrent flows of water and oil, based on fieldwork in Scotland as part of the Confluence programme alongside ongoing projects mapping the maritime supply chains of Israeli occupation.

Finally, we close with a live performance from pantea, stitching field recordings taken along the Clyde river corridor during the residency into a dense convergence of archival sound and site-specific composition.

CCA Theatre, 6-8pm, Friday August 30th.

Tickets are free but please reserve a space to avoid disappointment. To find out more about the residency and participant projects, follow the link above or contact fred.carter@glasgow.ac.uk.
