The Critical Infrastructures and Image Politics (CIIP) research group is pleased to invite you to an artist talk by Aziza Kadyri.
In the talk, Kadyri will discuss her transmedia practice, which integrates AI, extended reality, and traditional Central Asian crafts to explore the intersection of cultural heritage and immersive technology. Through the manipulation of archival fragments and the use of AI to adapt and respond to imagery and performance, Kadyri investigates how pre-modern techniques can inform contemporary practices of recording and remembering. Her talk will also highlight the collaborative nature of her work, challenging conventional ideas of individual authorship and embracing a collective approach rooted in artisanal traditions.
The talk is part of the CIIP Speaker Series organised in collaboration with MA Fine Art and MA Global Media Management in the Department of Art and Media Technology, Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton. The lecture is hybrid.
