Experimenta Social #18
This month’s Experimenta Social #18 speakers are challenging the narrative. Creating performances based on the investigation of multi-sensory perceptions and creative provocations, they are paving the way for inclusive arts practice. The unconventional prevails as audiences are influenced to connect and experience in new ways. Sound, sight and movement are experimented with, reconsidering traditional approaches to production and pushing the boundaries of assumed ability.
This event was curated by Emile Zile.
Experimenta Social is presented in partnership with ACMI X and supported by Marc Besen AC and Eva Besen AO.
