Living Archives

arts, society, culture · EN

What happens when two artists sit down together to talk? How might their conversations and artistic practices map a living archive of diasporic relations in Britain? Co-produced by the Stuart Hall Foundation and International Curators Forum, Living Archives is a podcast foregrounding intimate, intergenerational conversations between UK-based diasporic artists. The pairings in each episode begin with an invitation from one artist to another. Together, they exchange insights into art-making, memory and the ideas and influences shaping their practices. Rooted in Stuart Hall’s vision of a 'living archive', the series is a record of creative dialogues that explore how histories, identities and artistic practice are considered in the present.
