Saskia Pintelon, Hema Shironi, Firi Rahman (We Are From Here Project), Jagath Weerasinghe, Abdul Halik Azeez, Muvindu Binoy present at Language is Migrant, Colomboscope 2022

SFG is please to announce the participation of artists Saskia Pintelon, Hema Shironi, Firi Rahman (We Are From Here Project), Jagath Weerasinghe, Abdul Halik Azeez and Muvindu Binoy in the 2022 edition of Colomboscope titled 'Language is Migrant'.
 
The festival brings together intergenerational cultural practices from across Sri Lanka, South Asia and varied international contexts fostering global dialogue. Curated by Anushka Rajendran with artistic director Natasha Ginwala, several commissioned artworks and long-term projects will mobilize acts of transmission that embrace collective synergies and refuse parochial attitudes that are on the rise while dwelling in place. Instead, the channeling of sonic frequencies, live acts and spaces of reading become elemental instruments that sustain the traffic of creative processes, biographical timekeeping, engaged listening and senses of diasporic belonging.
