Who is invited to the city?

”Who is invited to the city? contributes to what might be read as an alternative portrait of Mumbai. A rapidly changing city, the chawls are now being demolished. Patil’s work relates to ongoing inequalities, championing the role of art in giving voice to communities who are often rendered invisible.” - .clegg1, Curator

Mafolofolo and Menagano

“MADEYOULOOK ask in Menagano, “What do we need to unlearn?” While Mafolofolo challenges us to be within an artwork without complete translation or transliteration. As a place of recovery, it holds open an uncertain space in which other kinds of knowledge, or being, might be permitted. It opens a dialogue with a people who understood what it meant to be with the land.” - .clegg1, Curator

“The materials in the colourful textile collages made by artist and activist Małgorzata Mirga-Tas come from various sources, including clothes belonging to her Roma family and friends, as well as traditional dresses donated by Roma communities. Working from historical images, archival photographs and family albums, she aims to redress hundreds of years of persecution and celebrate moments of everyday joy, holding close the strength of both present and past communities.” - .clegg1, Curator
