Alt+Shift+Studio is a series of online conversations and video tours that examine the intersection of infrastructures and ideas in contemporary artistic practice. The series explores a redefinition of artist studios in the 21st century, breaking away from the traditional image of an isolated space of production to a network of sites and relationships with the city.
In its 2023 edition, the programme delves into the theme of ‘Fractured Grids’. Inviting artists from South Asia and its diaspora, the series will offer insights into the spaces they inhabit and how local topographies inform their practice. The new edition navigates through the cities of Jaffna, Karachi, Kashmir, Dubai and Sharjah, with insights into how ecology, war, civil movements and migration shape contemporary art-making.
