Archives Of Resistance And Repair

About

Presenting recent works of moving-image and installation art, Archives of resistance and repair explores artistic efforts to reconsider the meaning and function of historical records from a decolonial perspective. The exhibition locates sites where personal and public histories intersect, exposing fault lines between loss and recovery, entropy and rejuvenation, as well as fact and fiction. The work of Shiraz Bayjoo, Maeve Brennan, and Onyeka Igwe deconstructs powerful knowledge regimes by confronting documentary materials with new critical methodologies that foreground intimacy and embodied experience. Through their research-based practices, the artists remind us that the future can only be negotiated through reconciliation with our past and its lingering material remnants.
