Join us for a meandering artist research walk. Together, we will be searching backstreets and secret corners for some of the many stories, spaces and projects that make up Whitechapel. As we walk, we will be finding threads of intrigue and inspiration to explore further, discovering new ways to learn and connect. Notebooks provided. Please bring a camera or camera phone.
This is an interactive walk that will be shaped by attendees. The pace and direction will be decided collectively and will be inclusive of all who join us.
This event is part of London’s Whitechapel Gallery Backyard Biennial.
Walking! Power! Inclusion! is multi-disciplinary team of artists, curators and researchers brought together by the Centre for Public Engagement Practice in Arts and Humanities, to co-design and deliver inclusive public engagement. This collaborative project explores ideas of power, inclusion and conviviality, and our ability to live together despite difference. For the Backyard Biennial, Walking! Power! Inclusion! has programmed a series of walks and workshops that invite visitors, local residents, and diasporic communities to democratise storytelling in the city; confront the line between private and public space; use photography to shift narratives; and explore Whitechapel with curiosity, creativity and criticality. Project members include Manal Massahla, Saira Niazi, Alisa Oleva, Ella Parry-Davies, Lorna Powell, Clare Qualmann, and Morag Rose.
