When the world has fallen into fracture and disarray, untethered, backwards, inverted... what can happen when we gather?
Azimeh / عزيمه (ah-zee-meh) is an Arabic word for a gathering — an invitation to come together. Azimeh / عزيمه is a gathering in response to the fuckery of the world.
Unleash the new, pull at magic threads, chase it away with polemic outcries, vocal signatures and ancestral song. We can learn a lot from each other when we gather. How remains to be seen.
Bringing together Nicole Barakat with Claudia Chidiac and Majdi Jelda; Rosie Belvie and Jenny Trinh, Azimeh / عزيمه doesn't propose gathering as an answer to the world we find ourselves in. It begins with something simpler: in response to it, we come together.
Come alchemise IN THE WORKS, followed by food and reflections. The night continues beyond the works, with every ticket including a shared meal in PACT's courtyard.
IN THE WORKS is curated by Victoria Hunt and Claudia Chidiac. IN THE WORKS provides a vital platform for artists to share ideas, test forms and connect with audiences through a series of short works nights curated by members of PACT's Associate Artists team.
This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through Creative Australia, its principal arts investment and advisory body.
