About

Join us for a talk by artist Mikhail Karikis about his project at Void Art Centre, 'Acoustics of Resistance', as part of Bounce Festival 2024, through the University of Atypical.


Please join us thereafter – from 6-9pm – for the official opening of Mikhail's project 'Acoustics of Resistance'. BYOB encouraged.

About the project:

What artistic responses can we invent in the face of climate collapse to inspire alternative visions to the dominant apocalyptic climate discourse? How can we collectively tune into the sonorities of socio-political change and ecology? Acoustics of Resistance is a multi-media project comprising of works that collectively tune into the sonorities of socio-political change and ecology. It rejoices in the transformative and healing powers of listening and sound-making while declaring that changing the course of climate change is in our hands and lies on humans learning the language of nature.

Mikhail Karikis is a Greek-British artist working with moving image, sound, performance and other media. Through collaborations with individuals and/or communities located beyond the circles of contemporary art, and in recent years with children, refugees, support workers and people with disabilities, he develops socially embedded projects that prompt an activist imaginary and rouse the potential to invent hopeful and sustainable futures. Focusing on listening as an artistic methodology, and the voice as a socio-political agent he centers on themes of environmental and social justice. His projects highlight alternative modes of action and solidarity, while nurturing critical attention, dignity and care.

'Acoustics of Resistance' is kindly supported by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland, the Henry Moore Foundation, and the University of Atypical.
