Worldmaking within Politics of Sight and Space

Please note, our webshop will be closed from the 19th of December until the 5th of January. Your orders will be processed after this date. We appreciate your patience over the holidays. 

Anchored through the contested definition and experiences of locality—as it informs the spatial and material narratives of artworks present within the ARAK collection—this publication attempt to trace the life of selected artworks from their place of creation and showcase the less documented modes of practices that birthed them. Outlining the arts ecosystem of three East African countries (Kenya, Ethiopia, and Uganda), as well as their diaspora, the exhibition focuses on what is particular about this triangular nexus, as it relates to the way artists produce work and how they build/inhabit a studio, to how they form their networks.
