« ABA » Air SALON: Women Waves - Magali Dougoud
Magali Dougoud is an artist based in Lausanne, Switzerland. She graduated from HEAD-Geneva and HKB-Bern with a Master in Fine Arts. She has also been co-curator of the independent art space Urgent Paradise in Lausanne from 2012 to 2019. She is working mainly with video, text and installation. In her artistic research she is looking to dismantle dominant stories (historical and scientific) to find other possible subjectivities. She develops an emancipative feminine imagination through notions such as liquidity - as a heterogeneous means of communication - violence, desire, origin, plurality and inter-species intelligence. She uses collective and intimate narratives that constitute an empirical knowledge.
For this broadcast on Colaboradio, Magali proposes a program called Women Waves, connecting Women, Water and Voices in a poetic and ethic approach. Through texts, voice-overs from her previous videos, sound pieces and music, she constructs a collage of reflections using the same process of montage as in her visual work.
ABA Air SALON is a radio format produced by Air Berlin Alexanderplatz, a Berlin based artist initiative dealing with the distribution and documentation of forms of collective and experimental knowledge production. The broadcasts come from different locations in Berlin where we organize salons. At these salons we meet with local actors, artists, scientists and other cultural producers to exchange around research based artistic projects and practices.
