與談講者及機構介紹
◆Shubho Saha（Back ART Foundation總監）
Shubho O Saha是來自達卡的視覺藝術家及獨立研究者，Back ART Foundation的總監，也是“達卡現場藝術雙年展”(D' LAB)的藝術總監。他以各種媒介工作，例如版畫，表演，雕塑，裝置，影像等，以此表達他無窮無盡的思想。
◇Back ART Foundation
Back ART Foundation即使面對獨自在達卡發起當代藝術計畫的龐大挑戰，仍不畏艱難於2013年成立，自此致力於揉合文化遺產與當代文化，集結多方力量組織活動，擴大達卡的藝術視野。這些活動也是新銳當代藝術家拓展長才的機會，讓以往被傳統藝術機構視為太具野心的實驗性與表演性作品，能藉此機會躍上城市舞台。
◆Godwin Constantine（Theertha創辦人）
Godwin Constantine生於1964年，來自斯里蘭卡，為Vibhavi Academy of Fine Arts及Theertha的創辦人。曾於2019參加PAN Asia (Performance Art Network Asia)與達卡Live Art雙年展，投身於藝術的同時也是作家及文學評論者。
◇Theertha
Theertha是位於斯里蘭卡的藝術家自營空間。 自2000年成立以來，Theertha進行大量的藝術活動。由11位視覺藝術家發起，透過斯里蘭卡國際藝術家研討會促進國際藝術交流，並擴大其活動範圍。
◆賴宗昀（失聲祭策展人）
創作以音像為始,對於生命狀態意義的追尋。近年來，因大量接觸聲響表演後也開始了個人的演出計劃。自行摸索混音器反饋噪音與環境錄音，進行影像與聲音結合的表演。影像取材不少民俗宗教祭儀，配上噪音音牆更顯神秘性。
◇失聲祭
《失聲祭Lacking Sound Festival》（簡稱LSF）為台北常態性的聲音表演活動，自2007年7月開始，一場兩組藝術家演出，每月一場，至今不曾間斷，為臺灣目前場次最多、參與藝術家最多的聲音演出活動，為臺灣2007後聲音藝術的重要活動。
