This conversation with artist and curator Fadescha gives some context to the joint activities that we are organizing with COLLECTIVE PRACTICES, and Fadescha’s space Party Office. During the conversation, Fadescha talks about the Party Office as a physical gathering space, and also as a conceptual space of creating a site for future publics, of queering hegemonies, and leaving room for possibility. We talk about the role of art and social spaces in working towards change at the macro level, towards publics which are critical, supporting, and caring for one another. The conversation takes account of the current situation under Covid, and how practices adapt during the pandemic.
