Itinerant Imaginaries II: Online Seminar | Archival Disorientation

4 November 2021 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Tagged:


How can archival experimentation help us contend with, question and interrogate the narrative the nation tells about itself through the work of black artists and artists of colour in Britain?

These gatherings hosted by Creating Interference, aim to address the impasse we are currently facing by applying non-linear, collective and fragmentary methodologies to the work of black artists and artists of colour situated in Britain and the diaspora. They will address critical questions relating to intertwined histories of empire, memory, forgetting, radical collecting practices and the process of unsettling national archives.

Itinerant Imaginaries Session 4 | 4 November 2021

Nydia A. Swaby hosts a conversation with fellow researchers, writers and curators Barby Asante, Ra Malaika Imhotepand Nathalie Anguezomo Mba Bikoro, drawing on the impasse facing archival studies. The panel explore a range of methodologies enacted to produce archival disorientation through experimentation, diasporic memory rituals and pleasure.
