Unseen Unsaid is a series of public conversations curated and produced by Basement Theatre that encourages difficult conversation to happen in a safe environment. Each conversation brings together leading thinkers from various backgrounds in Auckland City to excavate new thinking in the fields of art, life and politics.

UNSEEN UNSAID: ART & CONFLICT

Art is all about people and process, and everyone knows what it’s like when the art begins in perfect harmony, only to fall off the rails and leave collaborators feeling distant and fractured. Performance artist Elyssia Wilson-Heti (FAFSWAG, Fat Feb, Reclamation, Legacy Ball) brings together a panel of artists to examine different modes of conflict resolution. Through open conversation, she and her panel will explore the tools needed to safely sit in difficult spaces and manage conflict resolution through the making process.
