KABOUL (AFGHANISTAN) / PORTRAIT OF SPACES 6 [ENG]

The global crisis that we have been going through for months has encouraged us to take news from our neighbors around the world: "How are you doing in Nigeria?", "Are you in lockdown in the United States too?, "And in Venezuela, what are you doing?". All week, architects, geographers and artists talk to us about where they live. From Kabul or Barcelona, from New York to Lagos, via Canton, Carúpano or Lyon, they tell us the story of “inhabited resilience”.

Winning back the hearts and minds of society through « Artivism ». « Artivism » bridges art and activism; their are artists and activists equally. Art can be used as an outlet for self-expression, but also as a tool to advocate for human rights. This philosophy is that of Artlords and its president, Omaid Sharifi, who wants to present his « artivist » point of view on Kabul.

With :
Omaid Sharifi (Afghanistan), artist et activist, Founder and Director of Art Lords

Hosted by :

En collaboration avec Cityscapes magazine et ArtLords.
