In Person Only, Not Recorded
This workshop will be focused on the role of aesthetics in the creation and nurturing of complex critical and creative Indigenous lifeworlds. It aims to address, analyze, and articulate the everyday encounters we engage in, and how we navigate them via poetics. This workshop, then, will be an attempt to try — and, most likely, fail— to articulate a poetics or an ethics of poetics of how to engage with “Indigeneity” and ‘the everyday’ and its myriad registers and economies. It’s a workshop on writing, but one that will interrogate why we write and the stakes in doing so. Tâwaw (“welcome,” in Cree)!
