Clouded Title 2020/21 – conversations
an online reading and discussion group.
These sessions are held on Zoom and a related online discussion space is hosted on Slack.
​
​Email us to join.
Clouded Title continues its problematizing of the notion of ownership through interviews with people across disciplinary fields, as well as through an ongoing discussion and reading group which is open to anyone to join.

This research aims to tease out how different notions of ‘ownership’ are conceptualised and narrated, including how storied histories of ownership are performed within current understandings of who belongs to a community and how this bears on who is visible within the construction of public and political spaces.

​The aim is to scope out various discussions of the spatial/material 'ownerships' (land/air/water/people/non-human beings etc.) and (il)legal frameworks that instantiate such ownerships (appropriation of land, use of human and animal bodies) as 'property.'

Clouded Title Conversations 

In recognition of our community’s deep input to Street Road over our nearly 10 years of practice, we are pleased to announce, and to invite you to take part in, Clouded Title Conversations, an online discussion and reading group that draws on our past projects as well as on our community's perspectives to continue our ongoing investigations of ownership.

We will foreground the aesthetics and metaphoric qualities of land ownership, taking in things like the real estate industry, mapmaking, and local histories, following Street Road's focus on visual culture and practice-led art, and the ways those intersect with our social and political landscapes.

DETAILS
We will meet 6 times this year over Zoom, the third Saturday every other month. Participants will have access to an ongoing Slack site for discussion and sharing readings, resources, etc.
Four of the session themes draw on ongoing or current projects and themes at Street Road - we will choose later themes together as they emerge from our discussions.

The first meeting will be an open discussion of the project.
Note there will be a short suggested reading for each meeting - this is not obligatory. 
It’s envisaged that the Slack meeting place will include many resources and will be a place for you to share others. You are welcome to join the Slack channel without participating in the Zoom sessions, and vice versa.
Email us, with a short description of your interest, to participate and/or simply join us on Zoom (link below).

A word about 'here':
We acknowledge that we are on the ancestral lands of the Lenape, original people of the mid-Atlantic area, forced west by British and US governments. Most Delaware Indian tribe descendants are now located in Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Ontario. Lenni Lenapes in Pennsylvania are not officially recognized as tribes by the United States, though an estimated 5000 Lenape Nation descendants live in the Delaware River area. We pay respects to the Lenape people both past and present. Please consider the many legacies of violence, displacement and settlement that form part of our collective histories. While increased public recognition of these legacies and processes of redress such as Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission are positive steps, concrete focus on return of land and land rights remains a distant horizon.
