ISH Panel: ‘An Artist’s Duty is to Reflect the Times’

Our It Starts Here Conference returned for another year - this time revamped (and digital)!

We were excited to close our jam-packed Saturday programme with our final panel of the day, nodding to the sentiments of the late great Nina Simone: ‘An Artist’s duty is to reflect the times’: The role of art and creative resistance in our movements

In this discussion, our speakers made connections between the role of art in our movements as a form of resistance and another expression of our struggle - how do artists reflect their times? How do we document our movements and tell our stories? How do we move people through our work? How do we galvanise the masses through what we create and how we create? These are some of the many questions explore as well as thinking about each panellist's own artistic practice and the motivation behind the work they put out into the world.


The panel was moderated by Sarona Abuaker.

Speakers:
Jacob V Joyce
Tobi Alexandra Falade
Amina Atiq
Nadine Bloch
