Visual Harvesting is the art of drawing a conversation as it happens. You listen closely while an event unfolds, then sketch the key ideas, quotes, and connections as they emerge – turning complex talk into something you can see, follow, and remember.
This event is part of the seminar
PERSPECTIVES ON: MOVING ARCHIVES.
Participation is FREE, but as there are a limited number of spots, please remember to register via the link.
Abdul Dube shares insights from their documentation of the seminar through the practice of Visual Harvesting. Drawing on their work over the past few days, they offer a glimpse into how visual documentation can capture conversations, reflections, and collective insights. A small zine will also be available for those curious about exploring visual recording in their own gatherings.
Born in '||Hui !Gais,' the indigenous Khoe language meaning "where clouds gather," now known only as Cape Town, South Africa, Abdul Dube is a multidisciplinary artist, designer, curator, and workshop facilitator based between Denmark and Berlin.
Their work explores themes of multicultural belonging, racism and resistance, intersectional solidarity, heritage, survival, Black imagination, and artivism. They hold a printmaking practice alive using fugitive methods to make images.
In their facilitation work they have been visually recording for the past 16 years; their keen listening skills, matched with a simple visual vocabulary, allow Abdul to capture what sometimes makes the invisible visible.
