Dawn Breaks Final Performance: Free Flow Fictioning with Ismail Ali, Afri Harry, Caroline Mawer, Victory Milentijevic-Goodfellow & Marjane Moghimi
, –
Throughout November and December artists Jewyo Rhii and Jihyun Jung invited a group of participants from The Showroom’s neighbourhood to collaborate on a series of storytelling workshops. They each brought an object to the workshops for use as a catalyst for telling stories from personal memories.
Rhii and Jung then adapted the installation and sculptural machinery of Dawn Breaks in response to these stories. The artists entrusted the care and use of the resulting mobile theatres to the group. Ismail Ali, Afri Harry, Caroline Mawer, Victory Milentijevic-Goodfellow and Marjane Moghimi have taken on the role of directors, actors and set designers of their own productions. Workshops with the group, led by Boram Moon and Sooyon Kim, have been running in the exhibition space throughout January and culminate in this final performance.
