SUMMARY:Sonic Sermons: Performing Archives
LOCATION:Penarth Centre
DESCRIPTION:Sonic Sermons: Performing Archives is a day-long workshop led b
 y Joyce Treasure that offers participants space to explore personal archiv
 es as material for assemblage-making and embodied performance. Through spe
 culative writing\, body mapping\, and the creation of sculptural assemblag
 e pieces\, the session is designed to grow towards a collective participat
 ory performance in which assembled objects become active presences. Inspir
 ed by Cecilia Vicuña’s fragile precarios\, which merge discarded natura
 l and man-made materials\, the workshop explores the impermanence and inte
 rconnectedness of life\, viewing grief\, rage\, and ambivalence as generat
 ive creative forces. Vicuña’s ephemeral sculptures\, sometimes swept aw
 ay by nature\, act as offerings and reminders of ancestral knowledge. The 
 workshop reflects on her call to “hear the ancient voices in a new way
 ”\, and consider how\, or if\, such questions engage with our own archiv
 es and help to embrace the potential for change\, even in times of uncerta
 inty. Joyce Treasure is a multidisciplinary artist and independent researc
 her whose practice includes performance\, painting\, video\, photography\,
  costume\, writing\, and installation.Joyce Treasure’s practice draws pr
 imarily from Black feminist thought\, particularly Beverley Stoute’s the
 orisation of Black Rage\, alongside an ongoing interest in Yoruba cosmolog
 y and Butoh. Her work proposes refusal as a reparative process\, addressin
 g impermanence\, ancestral knowledge and the generative potential of fragm
 ents. In many creative and collaborative spaces\, there is an emphasis on 
 joy as a condition of feminist resistance and survival. Her research sits 
 in tension with this: she is interested in what gets foreclosed when joy b
 ecomes a requirement and grief\, rage\, and ambivalence are treated as pro
 blems to move through rather than as valid\, generative modes in their own
  right. She is equally wary of processes being instrumentalised toward a l
 egible positive outcome. This workshop is part of LPS' Horizontal Practice
 s programme. Horizontal Practices is dedicated to promoting peer-to-peer l
 earning and non-hierarchical spaces for conversation. These take form as d
 iscursive events\, professional training and curated guest workshops. Hori
 zontal Practices responds to the need for and importance of space for expe
 rimental modes of exchange that sit outside the context of institutional 
 ‘education’ frameworks. As with the rest of the LPS programme\, queer 
 and feminist practices and those which sit in-between visual art and theat
 re are at the core of Horizontal Practices.\n\nBoletos: https://www.outsav
