About the programme
In celebration of this year's Women's History Month, Skaped will be running a series of workshops all about decolonising the body. This is a free creative series dedicated to unravelling the cycles of oppression, fostering body liberation and empowerment through the arts.
The programme will end with a Collective Culminating Exhibition at Bermondsey Project Space happening the first week of April. A call-out for art submissions will be out soon, watch this space + follow us on our socials to enter your art piece!
About this event
Decolonising Intersectionality Workshop:
In a world marked by power imbalances and privilege, marginalised bodies often face unique challenges, including societal structures creating additional hurdles for individuals with POC bodies. Explore the intricate dynamic of power, privilege, and marginalisation with our expert guest speaker Samar Abdel Rahman as we delve into the intersection of identities and decolonisation. We’ll do so by engaging in a transformative art project—crafting personalised mirrors to amplify and reclaim narratives in the face of societal inequalities.
Prior knowledge is not necessary, just come along with an open mind and listening ears.
Open to ages 18 - 30, prioritising those identifying with the term ‘woman’ in any capacity, especially those who identify as POC and/or part of the Global Majority.
Spaces are limited; please register to reserve your spot.
