The conversation will be followed by a practical workshop led by Moran Barir, where we will practice our imagination to create a positive and desired vision of the future, free from the constraints of reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Imagining a better future is not an escape from reality; it is an act of resistance and liberation\u2014resistance to a reality of injustices and oppression, and liberation of the mind from intellectual suppression. Political imagination\u2014and the ability to train it\u2014are tools in the struggle for change. Through imaginative practice, we will envision the future we wish to create and gather information to refine our paths toward that future. The exhibition <em>Looking Back at the Future<\/em> examines our capacity to envision a future within a challenging reality, and the workshop is an invitation to train our political imagination and liberate our individual and collective vision from the various forces acting upon it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Moran Barir<\/strong> &#8211; Group facilitator, video creator, and activist.
