24 Oct, 2024 - 25 Feb, 2025
The Bangkok Art Biennale (BAB) 2024 titled Nurture Gaia after one of the many personifications of Mother Earth, her various historical expressions as a symbol of mother, nurturer, and giver of life, reaches across time and links cultures. Beyond Gaia’s mythic and mystical manifestations, she has also inspired scientific theories and philosophies. BAB 2024 will focus on differences between nature and nurture, complex ideas of femininity and feminine values, and contemplative engagements with ecopolitics, animism, and the supernatural.///
"Shokouk: A Cosmicomedy in Four Acts" is a transhistorical hybrid documentary that traces a polyphony of characters, sites and encounters related to infrastructures of space travel and cosmic imaginaries. Following a vertiginous narrative connecting various cosmic machinations from the 12th century Persianate world to the Baikonur Cosmodrome in the present moment, the film weaves historical facts and archival fabulations, and questions our common perceptions of time and space.
