Bringing to life the Disco Islam: Future Phantasmagoria installation, Bijan Moosavi takes on the role of Muslim entrepreneur and Islamic futurist through a performance within his installation. The performance will riff off ‘YouTube Commentary’ and ‘YouTube Reaction’ videos to create a live interpretation of the artists’ sci-fi corporate Disco Islam (2020) film.
This performance supports the installation of the same name in our second gallery.
