Join us for an opportunity to find out more about the work of performance artist Enkhbold Togmidshiirev from Mongolia and his residency project in Manchester.
During this year's Asia Triennial Manchester, Enkhbold Togmidshiirev will be visiting Manchester for a two week residency. In his performances, Enkhbold uses his own scaled down, self-built version of a ger; the mobile circular living structure traditionally used by nomadic Mongolian families. Hosted initially by The Manchester Museum and then by Islington Mill, Enkhbold will move his ger from site to site using performance to reveal and reflect on his heritage, its culture and traditions in relation to the new contexts in which he finds himself.
Enkhbold Togmidshiirev's residency project is co-commissioned by The International 3 and Shisha with support from Visiting Arts.
