Future Artefacts FM host artist Monya Riachi, as part of their New Weird Mini-series. Her work, Concerning Geographies: Entangled Histories, a speculative letter, addresses cartography across the Levante and the UK. Heard here as part of a live performance debuted alongside research unfolding the processes of map making, and their relationships to borders and power as imperial constructions.

Monya Riachi is an interdisciplinary artist. Her practice is material driven and research-led, and is explored through sculpture, installation, moving image, sound and writing. Her work centres matter as a site of meaning, narrative and archive, and explores themes around loss, ecological transformation, the politics of land and time.
