Sustaining the Otherwise:
Practicing Freedom and Refusal
On 27th February, with fervent joy we opened the exhibition Practicing Freedom and Refusal, as part of Sustaining the Otherwise, with a Performance and Activation of the sound-based sculpture installation ‘A Score for Atat’s Homestead’ by AYO.
We are so grateful to host the incredible works of AYO, Masimba Hwati, Christian Nyampeta, Adeju Thompson and Helena Uambembe in our space. Thank you to everyone who joined us in this gathering, and engaged with the offerings as entrance points for rethinking restitution — conveyed through film, sculpture, textile and sound-based works.
The exhibition is open:
Thursday – Saturday, 12pm – 5pm
27 February – 27 April
Thursday – Saturday, 12pm – 5pm
27 February – 27 April
Email us at info@metro54.nl if you would like to visit us outside of these times.
Sustaining the Otherwise is a multi-locational research and artistic project about restitution, reparation and transformation that offers a space for artists, curators, and scholars to be in dialogue and to explore the topic of restitution in relation to both material and immaterial culture.
