While mathematics is commonly presented as abstract and symbolic, mathematical work is grounded in visual thinking, intuition, experimentation, and personal motivation. Diagrams, sketches, spatial reasoning, gestures, and informal representations often precede formal notation, yet these processes typically remain invisible to wider audiences.

Testing models for coexistence through active listening and voicing, the workshops explore challenges of sharing space, thoughts, and feelings using performative tools. Tara brings elements from her practice in vocal delivery, performative text, relaxed singing and writing, combined with using bodies in performance.
Tara Fatehi (Tehran, 1987) is a performance, voice, dance, and text artist. Politically charged and stuck with everyday banality, her works explore multi-vocality, unfinished-ness, ambiguity, and playfulness. Recent stages include Southbank Centre, V&A Museum, Nottdance, Montpellier Danse, ICA, Centquatre-Paris, Oslo Dansens Hus. She is the co-founder of From the Lips to the Moon music and poetry shows, author of Mishandled Archive a series of 365 public interventions (LADA, 2020), and vocalist of People of the Wind (Akazib, 2025). She was the first-ever resident artist at the United Nations Archives in Geneva (2021).
