My Sound Art: Or the Attempt to Imagine Utopias?<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rui Chaves<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

OPEN CLASSES OF CONTEMPORARY ARTISTIC PRACTICES_2025_26<\/strong>
NOVEMBER 12TH OF 2025, 5.30PM
ROOM 34 OF EP1 \u2013 ESAD.CR<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

In this presentation, Rui Chaves offers a reflection on his artistic practice as an artist, teacher, curator, and writer, exploring listening as a critical and imaginative gesture. His sound art asserts itself as a field in process\u2014including his art-to-come\u2014shaped between essay and performance, the everyday and fiction, desire and uncertainty. Taking listening as a way of inhabiting and thinking about territory, Chaves summons sound as a force of resistance and hope, capable of staging possible worlds. His work thus proposes to listen to the present in order to imagine shared futures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
