In Flux Event @
University of East London
The Refugee Research Centre/UEL invite you to IN FLUX, the culmination of artist Marie Ange Bordas' Leverhulme Residency at UEL.
During her time at UEL, the artist has developed work around displacement and belonging through informal encounters with students and use of the Refugee Archive resources. She has also collaborated with Anita Fábos on her MA and undergraduate refugee modules, with the aim of stimulating students to challenge their assumptions about the research process and to encourage them to find new approaches to interact with people and explore concepts.
The event will open on December 10th at 17:00 in Matrix East when Marie Ange will show part of the artwork she produced, along with students' creative projects, and Anita Fábos will address the learning and teaching possibilities of this kind of collaboration for university programmes.
Throughout the week - 11th to the 17th of December- the creative projects produced by Anthropology of Refugees and Cultures of Exile students will be on display in the Library Foyer and the Refugee Archive, (from the 15th).
And on December 15th, Anita Fábos will give the lecture "Refugees as Actors" and, together with John Nassari, host a roundtable discussion on approaches to refugee-centred representation in the Main Lecture Theatre at Business School.
