Join us for performances and in-conversation with artists Jacob V Joyce, Georgia Lucas, Ahilapalapa Rands, Carlos Mauricio Rojas, Lasana Shabazz and b.Dewitt guest curator Ama Josephine Budge:
A conversation with Jnine Francois, Zarina Muhammad, Amanprit Sandhu, Sebastian H-W Live Artistr and b.Dewitt’s guest Curator Ama Josephine Eclair.
A group of artists, curators and thinkers that are in constant dialogue with societal understandings of “passing” and “privilege”, discuss how we perform, subvert and transform our intersecting racialisations, and the subsequent power dynamics that produce colourism. Asking: how do we crave, embody, hold on to and perform a racialisation that is constantly - often violently - projected, consumed, fetishised and “navigated” as well as weaponised to re-inforce systemic oppression? Join our compassionate, intergenerational conversation, sharing lived experience, strategies of resistance and solidarity and working to reclaim empowered racialised futures as people of colour.
Janine Francois is a Black-Feminist Community Worker, Cultural Producer and Lecturer at UAL. She is a PhD student investigating if Tate can be a safer space to discuss issues around race and cultural difference.
