Siân Hunter Dodsworth, Elene Kadagidze, Aleena Karim, and Finn K. Strüder
Siân Rosa Hunter Dodsworth is an evaluator, researcher and educator based in the UK and Mexico. Her collaborations with communities frequently explore the role of artistic, cultural and heritage practice in the construction of collective resistance, political memory and identity. Sian is an experienced museum professional and anthropologist, specialising in co-curation and co-production as part of social justice initiatives. She is a founder of Cards on the Table, a game that helps people think and talk critically about working together enabling them to express doubts, fears and hopes in an open way – and maybe become better collaborators as a result. Elene Kadagidze is a Georgian researcher, art historian, and educator. She is currently working on a research project about reasserting the importance of sensory learning in university education. She has always been fascinated with the way we embody the spaces we’re in, the way our senses are developed over time, and how they’re more involved in our lives than we give them credit for. Her interest in the theme of solidarity stems from her strong belief in the importance of community building and support. Standing in solidarity with each other will help us form strong connections and will provide us with a chance to help each other out on a deeper level. Aleena Karim is Faculty in English, Forman Christian College University, Pakistan. She is PhD candidate in Film Studies at LUCAS, Leiden University, Member of the PhD Council LEO at Leiden University and Research Fellow at NICA (Netherlands Institute of Cultural Analysis). Her research interests lie in Russian and Soviet films and literature, Comparative literature, Critical Theory, Critical Thinking and Academic Writing. Finn K. Struder, an art and heritage researcher and curator based in Berlin, specialises in education, queering, and democratisation of cultural spaces. As a curator for education, Finn develops museum tools, fosters democratic practices, and is currently immersed in research exploring the ethical and political dimensions of “technology as biopolitics” in the cultural sphere, with a focus on posthuman potentialities.
