Lines of Flight: For another world of possibilities
Casa’s year-round multi-arts programme at Brixton House.
It offers a space for experimentation and transnational exchange rooted in Latinx and Caribbean diasporic perspectives.
Curated by Gabriela Román González
Lines of Flight asks what it means to create, exhibit and experience art without relying on fixed truths or definitive answers. Instead of certainty, it turns towards ambiguity, contradiction and the unfinished as fertile grounds for imagining otherwise.
It brings together around 40 UK-based Latin American, Caribbean and diasporic artists working across installation, performance, painting, digital media, and research-led practices.
Lines of Flight unfolds through four guiding questions
They function as open axes and points of departure that can branch into different exhibitions, activations screenings, workshops and residencies across. Each question invites multiple responses and can be revisited in different moments:
Sensory worlds: How might art unsettle our habits of perception and invite us to feel, smell, touch, or imagine the world differently?
Acts of looking: When we choose what to show and what to hide, what kinds of power, care and futures are we making visible?
Transnational encounters: What becomes possible when artists exchange across languages, geographies, and cultural traditions?
Systems in Question: How can artistic practice reveal, bend or break the rules that govern cultural and social life?
