Grounded in her collaborations with artists across transnational contexts – particularly within Africa and diasporas – the talk will open a space to reflect on how spiritual forms and embodied knowledge are embedded, indirectly evoked, or circulate within contemporary artistic practices. These may take the form of ancestral references, gestures, landscapes, amongst others, resiting categories but remaining central to their creation. Drawing on selected curatorial projects, the talk will explore how curatorial work can create the conditions to hold space for these often intangible dimensions connecting to spirituality in art.
