Select Tuesdays, September 17 - November 26, 2024
Artists and Organizers: elekhlekha อีเหละเขละขละ
Collaborators: MORAKANA, an_outskirt, Melissa Almaguer
Gong(ฆ้อง) Gathering is a series of workshops, collaborative sound-making, and participatory performances by elekhlekha อีเหละเขละขละ, inspired by a community gathering gong ensemble found throughout Southeast Asia. Gong(ฆ้อง) Gathering is a platform for sharing, exchanging ideas, and collective conscious raising where elekhlekha invite guest collaborators MORAKANA, an_outskirt, Melissa Almaguer, and participants to engage in the investigation and unfolding of Southeast Asia's layers of political complexity through the continuity of oral and aural history and sound cultures' lineage. Gong Gathering is divided into three duo sessions, each with one collaborator for two weeks, one workshop, and one participatory performance.
