Description: | From counter-cultural art practices to defiant forms of style and dress, the subversive use of social networking to the street theatre of protest, this interdisciplinary symposium considered how aesthetic practices re-imagine and transform social structures, both historically and in the present. We were interested in dissent and protest, collaborations between artists and activists, the spectacle of organised protests, the improvised ‘uniforms’ of protestors, design activism, but also the everyday refusals to conform often expressed through a range of bodily gestures, dress and subversion of spaces and objects. The symposium explored how dissenting narratives have drawn on material and visual culture to make the case for change. |
