ART TRAVELOGUE is a new format, an audio/video journey with art as a destination. How does the journey to arrive at the art space inform our experience of the art work or exhibition? Does our own internal journey through life affect our perception of art? Embark on this trip with your host, Joana P. R. Neves. Ft. Haroon Mirza, Yates Norton, Inês Costa. In this episode you'll find out about British artist Haroon Mirza's new commissioned piece (a performance and a sound installation) for Focal Point Gallery's exhibition In Other Worlds: Acts of Translation . By travelling with our host, curator Joana P. R. Neves, you hear about the people, the seascapes, the urban areas, histories of Essex's estuary, through the scope of Mirza's translation of electric sounds from an older piece into human voices. This journey will be narrated by Joana, and interspersed with recordings of the artist, and the two curators of the exhibition, Inês Costa and Yates Norton. And finally, you'll arrive on site to experience the performance Adam, Eve, Others and a UFO for Choral Octet. → To dig deeper into the episode's references and receive little gems, notes, and musings that didn't make it into the episode, SIGN UP: https://joanaprneves.substack.com/s/exhibitionistas → For our third season, we're working with intern production assistants for the first time.
