Folkestone Triennial Fringe Talk Series - British Sound and Performance Art

A discussion hosted by artist and broadcaster Fari Bradley for Strangelove, the time-based media festival.

How is performance art embodied?

Phenomenology, Performance and the Artist Placement Group.

Folkestone artists Claire Attia and Dr Henrica Langh discuss their action-based or experience-centred work, processes and influences.

Dr. Langh introduces her practice-led research, and how she draws on phenomenology as 'a methodology of holistic curiosity that scrutinises the normalised and taken-for-granted of our experience'.

Claire Attia discusses her community-facing and mark-making work in the context of a childhood spent with the founders of the 1960s seminal Artist Placement Group, who believed in placing artists in positions of influence across society as anything council to corporate employees.
