About the event
What happens when the Law School leaves its halls and seminar rooms, and pops up in the gallery?
Join us on 23 November, 4-6 pm, at The Mosaic Rooms , for this reading+viewing group meeting, the first in a series of events led by Helene Kazan, Artist in Residence at The Westminster Law and Theory Lab, Westminster Law School, University of Westminster, during 2022-23.
During her residency at the Lab, Kazan will continue to work on her interdisciplinary film installation series Frame of Accountability, a multimedia project that engages feminist, decolonial, critical-legal and artistic practice and theory to explore the possibilities of dismantling the effects of law as a form of structural violence. Kazan's work, (Un)Touching Ground (2022), which is part of the Frame of Accountability series, is being screened at The Mosaic Rooms on 29 November, at 7 pm, followed by a conversation between Helene Kazan and Marwa Arsanios.
The pop-up reading+viewing group organised by the Westminster Law and Theory Lab on 23 November will explore the themes of law, land, and colonial appropriation that Kazan and Arsanios share.
