emerges as a continued exploration of watery discourses - a trajectory prompted by Ayesha Hameed in 2019/2020 Ocean(s) as Archive(s) seminar at Goldsmiths, University of London.
it takes the shape of three sessions, each looking at a selection of written, visual and audio materials. through imaginary,scientific, material and linguistic accounts water will be considered both fleeting and tangible. manoeuvering various sources requires a direction, therefore each session will utilise a distinct orientation when thinking with the water:

a horizontal voyage from land to the open sea will trace changes in environments and subjects depending on their proximity to the water. investigating the spatial and temporal dimensions of such travel will enable insights into the visual and bodily responses specific to a given setting.

the circular motion of the transitional nature of water will be the focal point of the second set of readings. swimming across the boundaries between bodies of water that are often described as distinct (water, rain, cloud, ice) will probe its fluidity, instability and interconnectedness.

the tentacular approach of the last session will simultaneously try to dive deep into the ocean to take a closer look at cephalopods of the real, attempt to draw parallels with the cosmic monsters of the imaginary planes and investigate the symbolism of octopus in relation to cartography.
