ABOUT THE SPEAKER:
Hoda Siahtiri is an audiovisual performance artist and researcher based in Brussels. Hoda’s work centres around grief, memory, and ancestral vocal heritage. Her artistic research entitled ‘Singing The Silences’ is framed in a PhD research at University of Antwerp and Sint Lucas Antwerp. In her research, she comes to voice through singing nearby her lineage of Bakhtiari women in the west of Iran. She mediates intersectional possibilities of knowledge transmission, by floating in the processes of sonic ancestral embodiment. Hoda’s performance, short films, audiovisual exhibitions, and ceremonies were shown and shared at many festivals and cultural venues in Belgium and in Europe.

ABOUT THE TALK:
Hoda invites you to join her in reflecting on paradigms of research driven by pain and loss through her ongoing research, “Singing the Silence.” She will share how the phenomenological experience of the sound, embodied archives, and floating in ancestral vocal heritage have become key concepts, opening portal to the world of collective creation with spaces, humans, and trees …
