DESCRIPTION:Join co-curators Megan Hoetger and Lawil Karama for a walkthrou
	gh of the\nexhibition\, which introduces the audience to key topics within
	 each of the\nartists’ research trajectories\, as well as to major themes 
	connecting between\nthem. \n\nFor this event our normal entry ticket price
	s are applicable. Reserve your spot\nvia Eventbrite [https://www.eventbrit

	n\nLawil Karama (she/her) is a Ugandan-Dutch conceptual artist born in for
	mer West\nBerlin and based in Amsterdam. Her work is deeply rooted in the 
	diasporic\nexperience\, often drawing from her family history as a startin
	g point for\nchallenging conventional narratives and amplifying unheard vo
	ices. Karama’s\ncreative path began in the world of special make-up effect
	s\, which continues to\ninfluence her approach\, bringing a visceral under
	standing of form\, surface\, and\npsychological tension into her current w
	ork.\n\nMegan Hoetger (she/her) is an on-the-ground hard femme⁠⁠⁠\, and sh
	e is also a\nperformance\, film\, and media historian\, a curator\, conven
	er\, and pedagogical\ndreamer. At the core of her work is a double commitm
	ent: first\, to a research\npraxis that rejects colonial and (neo)liberal 
	strategies of knowledge\nproduction\; and second\, to the frames of thinki
	ng offered by the field of\nperformance studies with regards to time\, (im
	)material transmission\, and\nembodied memory. Hoetger is particularly att
	entive to what these frames of\nthinking can teach her about historiograph
	ic method\, the relationality of\narchival work / the relational work of ‘
	the archival\,’ and the politics of\nremembering events – from macro-level
	 actions in statecraft and international\nrelations to micro-level happeni
	ngs like a film screening\, poetry reading\, or\nperformance.
