Synopsis

Held in conjunction with the exhibition A child dies, a child plays, a woman is born, a woman dies, a bird arrives, a bird flies off at the Esplanade Tunnel, this talk by artist Shireen Seno sheds light on her practice at large and how she moves between photography, film and installation. She will delve into her ongoing project A child dies, a child plays, a woman is born, a woman dies, a bird arrives, a bird flies off, sharing about how it developed from initial idea to its current iteration. The work is Seno’s attempt at questioning the idea of progress and what it means to grow up.
