Shifting Ground – Reset / Reconnect / Reinvigorate follows on from last year’s insightful discussion Tick Box / Break Glass / Look Pretty, which explored the experiences and opportunities for women of colour in the arts. We revisit this subject to discover what has changed on a personal, local and global level for each of the original panellists.
This discussion investigates how the events of 2020 impacted their lives as they explore shifts in perspectives, identities, values and priorities; reflecting on what their relationship to the arts looks like today.
As we seek pathways that lead to solutions, we also share what challenges have been faced and the tools cultivated that enable us to be adaptable, resilient and learn to trust in ourselves.
Facilitator: Dawn Estefan (psychotherapist, writer, trainer & speaker)
Panelists: Julia Cheng (Dancer, choreographer & Creative Director House of Absolute); Tracy Gentles (Director, Something To Aim For); Nike Jonah (Creative Producer)
