Safina Radio Project
Diverse sedi, Venezia
On the canals and waterways of Venice, a boat transformed into a recording studio
Commissioned by Alserkal Avenue and curated by Anabelle de Gersigny, the Safina Radio Project is an itinerant space, a boat transformed into a recording studio navigating the Venetian waterways and transporting passengers from one place to another whilst serving as a platform for exploration and exchange. The project creates transitory and transient communities with each journey, bringing focus to collective experience and targeting an investigation into how we locate ourselves and how we mediate our human and historic commonality. A broad spectrum of artists, writers and curators, whose practices draw from a variety of contexts, will participate in Venice through conversations and happenings on the boat. An audio recording of each live event will be uploaded to the website within 24 hours of it taking place, opening up experiences and events in Venice to a wider audience.
