SUMMARY:Counterpoints Arts: Our HeartBeats at Southbank centre
DESCRIPTION:Feel the community beat at a free outdoor event bringing together emerging and established DJs with young refugee DJs\, in collaboration with DJ Kensaye. \nOur HeartBeats is a community club night produced in collaboration with DJ Kensaye\, with a focus on art\, heart and community – and dancing! \nEmerging and established DJs and performers take to the stage alongside a group of young refugees perfecting their DJing skills. Five of the Our HeartBeats project DJs are performing along Kensaye and Cal Jader. \nKensaye is a Paris-born\, London-based music producer\, percussionist and DJ\, with Haitian and American roots.

SUMMARY:Acting with Love & Solidarity at Southbank Centre - with Tasnim Mahdy and Riwa Saab
DESCRIPTION:On the final day of Counterpoints Arts’ weekend you are invited to join artist Tasnim Mahdy in a collaborative workshop exploring themes of memory\, archives and re-emerging narratives through cyanotypes – a type of artwork made using the UV rays of the sun to create unique pieces of textiles. \nThen end the day experiencing a performance by Riwa Saab\, reflecting on the life of Syrian singer Asmahan\, whose life and legacy are told through music\, words and movement. \nRiwa Saab is a cross-disciplinary artist who works with space\, sound and words. Through braiding together the crafts of theatre\, poetry and music\, she explores the diasporic experience of building cultural bridges\, unpacks generational and familial baggage\, and creates space for pockets of joy. \nAsmahan: An Unbridled Voice by Riwa Saab is a multidisciplinary performance piece exploring the secrets\, truths and fallacies that get spun into gossip\, the inseparability of art and politics\, and a woman’s insistence on liberation. These themes are unravelled through the journey of Asmahan\, the Syrian singer who reached great heights with her enigmatic voice and captivating presence\, all while challenging the barriers of both colonialism and tradition. \nSchedule\n1pm – 5.30pm: cyanotype workshop with Tasnim Mahdy\n5.30pm – 6pm: performance of Asmahan: An Unbridled Voice by Riwa Saab \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis summer\, Southbank Centre is collaborating with a range of London-based collectives and organisations to curate the Riverside Stage in response to the theme of our season\, You Belong Here\, enabling these collaborators to welcome different audiences and recognise how they want and choose to belong at the Southbank Centre. See our events pages for the rest of the weekend’s programme. \nImage: Shona Goolab\, Refugee Week at Yorkton Workshops
