Resilient Currents: On Communal Re-Existence

Group Show

21.03.2024 - 25.04.2024

F O R M A EXHIBITION CENTER
127 Rue de Turenne, Paris
Curated by Ilaria Conti


Developed over the course of 3 years by independent curator Ilaria Conti, the exhibition highlights multidisciplinary practices linked to Abya Yala (a Kuna term for Central and South America as a constellation of sovereign non-colonial or decolonial spaces). The invited practices are committed to ethical forms of relation and epistemic justice—in one word, characterized by a commitment to the communal.

The artistic and activist practices invited recognize the urgency of practicing forms of political, social, affective, and spiritual agency as part of a network of ethical relations. Rejecting the limits of colonial knowledge systems, the artists honor the plurality of worlds that communal processes generate.
