📣 Calling Desi visual artists to collaborate on a really cool arts research project in Vienna! 📣
Contact me asap if you're interested! 🌝
Info: srestha.art/
ALT Calling South Asian Artists! Are you an Indian, Bangladeshi, or Pakistani visual artist? Do you want to collaborate on a really cool arts research project, and find out what your art does to people?! Your artworks will be the centrepiece of my study! Who am I looking for? • You are an Indian, Bangladeshi, Pakistani, or South Asian visual artist. • You have lived experiences of forced migration or displacement. • You are willing to collaborate and co-create as an artist in this research project. How will we collaborate? • Once ready, your precious art will be installed and exhibited in a person's home or apartment, and later, an art gallery! • I will then collect data on people's experiences with your art! Note: As I am a self-funded PhD student, I sadly cannot offer you monetary compensation right now. However, my endless gratitude and appreciation, as well as the promotion of your art, are a given! ♥ Email: a12149848@unet.univie.ac.at Instagram: @Nerdypegasus Twitter: @Neurosresh

Last week, the 2nd Into Science Retreat took place at beautiful Lake Neusiedl, offering PhD candidates a space to connect, discuss scientific motivations, & learn new skills. Huge thanks to all participants for their engagement!
We hope to see many of you there next year!

Still buzzing from all the neuroaesthetics and creativity insight downloaded at @IAEAPalma2024 . As I am just beginning my PhD in the @ARTIS_H2020 lab (pictured) and @EvaLabVienna - I feel so grateful to learn from so many emerging & established groovy people. Gracias a todos 🤎

Hi, all! I've had quite a dreadful couple of years dealing with chronic illnesses and disabilities that has delayed my PhD even further. Would be truly grateful if you donate to my fundraiser or help me reach a larger audience by sharing it. Thanks a ton!

It's Friday! Didn't get much done today except writing a short proposal for a summer academy workshop for students and answering emails, but anyway: Time to start the weekend and relax. ☀️
Have some spring blooms from my lunch walk. 😊🌸 (@Neurosresh)

We discussed what we liked (and didn't like) about Hood Feminism today BUT we at @fem_abc not only want to talk about feminist issues, we want to act!💪
So we summarized some concrete action points (re: being a good intersectional feminist ally) that you can find in the thread⬇️

The next virtual meeting will take place on Mon, Mar 7th from 4pm GMT (check your time zone: tinyurl.com/femabc). 💜

As the grandchild of Bangladeshi refugees, hearing them talk about their struggle would always rip my heart out.
I honestly cannot imagine what refugees of war go through. I can only hope that they are met with kindness, empathy, love, and their dignity intact.
