Sancintya Mohini Simpson: First Thursdays

March 5, 2020 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm AEST

Free

Join IMA Belltower artist Sancintya Mohini Simpson and her collaborators as they take over the IMA courtyard with an evening of performance that brings together language, gesture, and ritual to invoke the stories of women forgotten by colonial histories.

See performances by Joella WarkillManisha AnjaliShivanjani LalSancintya Mohini Simpson, and Isha Ram Das, as they share connected familial histories marked by the colonial sugar industry’s system of indenture.

The night will give voice to the performers’ ancestors—women who journeyed across oceans to be bound by sugar plantations.

Please note: Peril provides these details as a courtesy, but we’re not in charge of the events, so please don’t harrass us if the Facebook page is down for a particular event – unless we make that really really clear, in which case you’ll know because we’ll probably be hounding to you come along.

We’re free to access and want to keep it that way. If you want to ensure Asian Australian voices – in all their diversity and complexity – continue to be heard, please consider making a donation.
