Join Elham Puriya Mehr for a talk unraveling the intricate layers of the coffeehouse as a "third space" and explore its affective atmosphere

Coffeehouselab #1: Curator's talk: “The Third Space: The Affective Atmosphere of Coffeehouses” For the first event, we invite you to a curator talk by Elham Puriya Mehr, an independent curator based in Vancouver. Elham will present her video titled ‘The Third Space: The Affective Atmosphere of Coffeehouses,’ in which she unravels the intricate layers, affective atmosphere, and specters of the coffeehouse as a ‘third space.’ Following this presentation, she will delve into her insightful research on the potentiality of coffeehouses as alternative learning spaces that foster events. She invites us to this journey to historical coffeehouses in Iran and England, to collectively reflect on the 'biopolitics of happiness,' and explore resistant strategies. This residency has been possible through the generous support of the Canada Council for the Arts and Griffin Art Projects.
