Approaching Interactive Creativity with Intention, Consent, Change and Integrity: Social Practice Speaker Series with Angela Fama

Join us for a new speaker series hosted by the SPACE Minor that is dedicated to themes, experiences, and skill-sharing within socially engaged practices. About the Artist:

Angela Fama is a transdisciplinary artist engaged in social practice and community focused projects, interweaving her lived experiences with collective experiences in areas such as trauma, death, belonging, communication, and ideas of identity. Collaborating with research as an artistic medium, she often creates interactive works with multi-sensorial mediums, approaching with an intersectional commitment to transparency, awareness, accountability, connection, and care.

Born in Tennessee, she was raised in Ontario and Zimbabwe. She is a French/Italian/Scottish/Irish/Unknown unsettled settler living on the unceded territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm, Skwxwú7mesh, and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh Nations (Vancouver BC). She holds a BFA from ECUAD, a Professional Photo-Imaging Diploma from Langara College, and has trained as a death doula. She works and volunteers with abuse/violence prevention and post-trauma support organizations. She holds long-standing experience as a musician, commercial photographer, and journalist. Through this, she has gathered familiarity holding space for, and with, multiple truths which is integral to her praxis. https://www.angelafama.com/
