Artist Talk by Sameer Farooq at the Inverness County Centre for the Arts
Date: Tuesday, August 13 2024
Cape Breton born artist Sameer Farooq will share ideas about his practice over the past decade including building imaginary museums with the public, the role of meditation/contemplative practice in his work, and his recent foodways research, specifically on the importance of building tandoor ovens and working with flatbread libraries as a lens on migration. During August 2024 he will be spending two weeks staying at MacKinnon’s Brook in Cape Breton, making work that engages with Sight Point/Cape Mabou, as part of a project organized by Outdoor School (Diane Borsato and Amish Morrell). Presented by the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, at the Inverness County Centre for the Arts with support from Eltuek Arts Centre, Outdoor School (Diane Borsato and Amish Morrell), and The Canada Council for the Arts.
