Refugees Welcome. Refugees Will Come
with Babi Badalov
August 20–31, Casa delle Agriculture, Castiglione d’Otranto, Apulia, Italy
Artist Babi Badalov will lead a participatory workshop on mask-making and a collective mural painting with a mixed group of social workers, people in the refugee struggle, and youth from Casa delle Agriculture. Part of a long-term support to this collective of organic farmers, using storytelling, story-placing, and visual self-representation, the work aims to center those thriving against land enclosure, forms of displacement and exploitation. It also celebrates land defenders, the Indigenous resurgence worldwide, and those who fight for a more just, equal, and non-extractive relationship with both human and non-human species.
