EVENT: BSL Response: I Still Dream of Lost Vocabularies

Join artist Rubbena Aurangzeb-Tariq for a BSL response to Autograph’s exhibition I Still Dream of Lost Vocabularies. Aurangzeb-Tariq will introduce the key themes in the group exhibition, which explores photomontage’s rich legacy as a powerful tool for artists engaging with experiences of political dissent and erasure. She will use the artwork on display to expand on ideas such as how constructed images can stand in for disputed – and often entangled – narratives when words fail.

This event will take place in Autograph’s gallery amongst more than 90 works by 13 contemporary artists.

This event will be in British Sign Language only. The exhibition tour will last around 45 minutes, starting promptly at 6:30pm and will be followed by an informal opportunity to socialise over drinks.

Content note: We'd like you to know before your visit that this exhibition addresses some difficult themes. Some artworks reference violence or contain nudity.

Tour lead by Rubbena Aurangzeb-Tariq. Rubbena is a London-based artist and facilitator whose work concerns culture, deaf identity and, as a deaf woman of Pakistani heritage, the multi-faceted nature of being a ‘minority within a minority’.
