WALKING PERFORMANCE

Performance artist Honi Ryan creates interactions between people and places that occur in everyday environments but point towards new possibilities. Her eight-week residency in Lahore comprised of several research facets based on Walking in Lahore. On December 2, Ryan offers participants a chance to join a silent walk in the city that will activate deep listening to place, and encourage embodied responses in the context of the critical dialogues happening at the symposium itself.

To participate in the walk please sign-up on Thursday, December 1, at the Symposium CITY IN CONTEXT, Alhamra Arts Council, Hall 3. Places are limited. The meeting point will be announced.

Honi Ryan's work will be part of the URBANITIES exhibition in Lahore, December 1-4, 2016.
