This is Not A Landscape (2018 - )
Deadline: Sunday, 23rd of March, 2025

https://www.medrar.org/activities/open-call-this-is-not-a-landscape-the-open-studio/


In this iteration of the project Azza invites other artists and practitioners in an open studio setting to think about the ways in which this urban experience can be understood but also processed visually and artistically through different practices and mediums. Azza together with artists will engage in three intensive sessions about: human and non-human experience in the urban environment, everyday experiences of the web interactions that take place in the urban surroundings (with structural and non-structural elements) and the spatial strategies that are used to navigate this urban space and reality.
Each session will be followed by an open studio where artists and participants will share with the public a moment of reflection and experimentation

My participated work: 5 Days in Altor City

The  world has suffered and is still suffering the wide-ranging changes that  have occurred over the past two years and Darb 1718 was no exception.  We went dormant for two years as we were coping as well with those  overwhelming changes. Three months ago, we decided that we will come  back again as the world, now more than ever, needs a glimpse of joy and  hope in the face of the fear and the anxieties that consume us everyday.  Arts and culture, we believe, is what keeps us humane, and give us  purpose. Hereby, we invite for our comeback exhibition on November 3rd.
