On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Elena Gallina is a 2019 Rhodes Scholar and the Rhodes Trust’s very first Artist in Residence.
For this residency Elena Gallina has focussed on the Kosovar practice of collecting and trading paper napkins. This goes as far back as the 60’s and is a dying tradition. The divided city of Mitrovica is the focal point of the exhibition. The artist also travelled to Peja, Prishtina and Prizren, interviewing women from 17 to 89 years old.
Çiknia jonë explores changes before and after war, alongside intergenerational circles of girlhood based in the divided city of Mitrovica. It is a celebration through photography and textiles of the colour and joy of women, and the significance of feminine love in difficult circumstances.
Register for a free ticket to join us at the launch event in Rhodes House, Oxford.
