Grids of Yesterday and the Shape of Things to Come
Workshop
Jameel Arts Centre
2023

The workshop facilitated by Assi Abogado centered on exploring feelings of self, introspection, and analyzing the cultural and social impacts of using finsta as a tool. Guests were invited to print images from their own digital archives and cut them into shapes that resonated with them, transforming the narratives of the photos through these modifications.

The workshop began with a discussion on what finsta meant to each guest and involved introspection on the photos they had posted. The group also examined the differences in using Instagram privately versus publicly, and the performative aspects associated with each context.

The workshop was organized by Assembly 2022-2023 member Nathaniel Enriquez and with assistance from Nadin Dib and Shama Nair for the 2023 Jameel Arts Centre Youth Takeover.
