Yara is delivering a listening session Coloured awareness for roam festival.
In this session, she will create awareness towards sound, visualising the invisible sounds with colours and shapes. You will be learning and discussing how to listen to and describe sound of your world together.
A prolific artist and scholar, Mekawei‘s sonic bricolages draw inspiration from the dynamic flow of urban centres and the key infrastructure of cities. Interested in the philosophy of architecture, social history, and philosophical literature. Mekawei implemented the optical transaction from the musical conversation and transferred the sound waves to visual forms. Her work is based on sound as an essential tool of vision, the philosophy of composition is shaped by sophisticated practices that convey messages of the conceptual dimension to the public.
Mekawei has a research-based practice humbly proposed in history, intimately connecting the ideology of the
mythic past to the developed technology of the eternal present.
