Event Description

Feedback/Feedforward is a two-part series of discussion groups to explore the ideas around art criticism for the future, inviting participants to look back, see where we’ve come from and what we’ve done, and discuss ways forward.

We have invited practitioners in poetry, filmmaking, art, writing, dance, and more, who each possess a range of experiences, cultures, languages, and creative practices, for a public discussion to explore the role and relevance of discussing, writing, and sharing about art in all its forms.

Join art historian, facilitator and lead researcher Kim Dhillon in a discussion with local artists:

- Kemi Craig
- Tarah Hogue
- Alana Sayers

We invite all to participate in this discussion but please be aware that Indigenous, Black, and POC voices will be prioritized in this event.

The Integrate Art Society and its Feedback/Feedforward project is situated on traditional and unceded Songhees, Esquimalt, and W̱SÁNEĆ Nations. We strive to remain mindful of the cultural impacts of ongoing colonialism and dispossession of Indigenous peoples as we continue to engage communities and hold events in this region.

VIDEO & AUDIO DOCUMENTATION

Video and audio will be recorded at this event to provide an opportunity for those who may not be able to attend in person to participate on demand, and to ensure opportunities for observation and discussion at a later date. Media release forms will be available on site for participants.

OUR PATH AHEAD

Integrate Arts is taking a step back from its annual festival - to spend more time looking around so we can move forward. With a special interest in artists, curators, and makers in the local area who are black, people of colour and/or Indigenous artists, Integrate Arts thought about making a magazine to document and share the work being produced in the region... But do we need another art magazine? What else is possible? Are all these forms inherited, and do they make sense for black, people of colour, or Indigenous artists? Is there another way forward? If so, what does it look like? Join us for our second and final session of our new research-based project: Feedback/Feedforward.
