We are pleased to present our first conversation for our publishing practices series at the Kurachee x AAN Reading Room
Exhausted Geographies: A Conversation between Abeera Kamran, Zahra Malkani and Shahana Rajani
Exhausted Geographies is a collaborative publishing practice by Shahana Rajani, Zahra Malkani and Abeera Kamran, based in Karachi, Pakistan. It is a series of publications exploring images, text and the city. Each volume of Exhausted Geographies mobilizes a crucial, cross-disciplinary political imaginary to rethink current representations of Karachi and includes a wide range of topics that provide new insights into the social, spatial and discursive fabric of the city.
Exhausted Geographies is now 10 years old. It remains an anchoring project amongst the various practices of its core team, Shahana Rajani, Zahra Malkani and Abeera Kamran. Exhausted Geographies has proven to be fertile ground for new imaginings and streams of inquiry for its team. Shahana, Zahra and Abeera will reflect upon how invigorating a self-published project can be within an art and design career. They will share insights into their collaborative and individual practices and concerns in an open and interactive discussion.
