#149 Love as Praxis

how can we gather in non-hierarchical ways, form solidarities, resist shallow representation and form cultures of genuine reciprocity? ⁠

Upending the colonial building of artshouse during Dalit History Month, ಒಡಲಾಳ Odalala (‘from the depths of one’s being’) brings together local and international artists to examine histories of caste, migration, gender and sexuality through contemporary expression. Envisioned by Dalit curator-artist Vishal Kumaraswamy morphing conventional expectations through an anti-caste politics of curation. Hear Vishal in dialogue with artists Elyas Alavi & Jagath Dheerasekara making these ideas come to life. 

This episode was produced by Shareeka Helaluddin, and came together through the dedicated collaborative efforts of Vishal Kumaraswamy, Louana Sainsbury, Varsha Ramesh & Nithya Nagarajan.

ಒಡಲಾಳ Odalala Dispatches: what are the sounds of the subaltern?

A stunning and expansive world conjured by Aaqila aka halalbutch

Aaqila is a writer, artist, DJ and community organiser based on Whadjuk land and sometimes Gadigal land. Their habitude operates towards providing tools for collective liberation beyond the tools of the institution; which manifests in different ways from the dinner table to the gallery. Their threads of research are drawn from Malay-Anglo subjectivities and move slowly through contemporary and ancestral understandings of gender, collective healing and embodied ritual. They have written for numerous publications across so-called Australia including Disclaimer Journal, un Magazine, Granville Centre Art Gallery, sweet pea and several more. They recently participated in the Muslim Poetry Project with Sweatshop Literacy Movement and the Asia Pacific Exchange Program with Perth Institute of Contemporary Art and Grey Projects in Singapore. They also perform and DJ semi-regularly under varying pseudonyms.
