Experiment in Understanding Futurity Closure 'Camp Cushy' on future writing

18/08/2019
11:00 - 15:00

Inspired on the Xenogenesis exhibition, Watershed's Camp Cushy is all about future writing this year. On 18 August we close the exhibition and Camp Cushy with a 'round room session' you don't want to miss! We are welcoming futurism pioneers in art and literature to unpack  some of the concepts of futurity, in art, writing and life.

This day is an invitation to dialogue, not a symposium. Why are stories about the future sometimes more connecting than common history? How can futurity catalyse change, emancipation and hope? Let's wonder and talk!
