Re-Manifestations: Embodying Routes of Contemporary Protest

An embodied engagement with the ongoing history of manifest, Re-Manifestations seeks to map the diasporic routes that inform Montreal's contemporary protest genealogies. Participants will perform site-specific creative interrogations of archival artefacts. A documented record of each intervention will be added to digital and analogue maps.
