Description
Additional Info.

RIPPLES presents an evocative collection of installation, film, painting, photography, and mixed-media works by 20 emerging artists from the Royal College of Art (RCA). Directed by Jane Lee, Luis López, María Helena Toscana, Polo Farerra, and Ume González, along with six other curators, this exhibition challenges conventional narratives and delves into decolonial discourse through personal and communal lenses.

In our belief that there is no singular way to address decoloniality, we initiated an open call, inviting artists and curators at RCA to exchange their intimate reflections on decolonialism. Upholding principles of openness, care for reparations, and reflection, we selected 20 artists/teams and eight curators, each establishing a cohort that reflects their varying visions on the topic that ranges from discourses on diaspora communities to generational trauma and related social and cultural phenomena.

Under the themes of observing the history of control, resistance, and knowledge; transnational ways of knowing and value repatriation; and hidden narratives emerging and re-discovering identities, RIPPLES explores how decoloniality can be analyzed and mediated in contemporary times and offers an intergenerational platform to initiate and reflect on the decolonial discourse, not from the imperialist viewpoint but from personal narratives.

The exhibition will feature engaging conversations with curators during the private view and an array of programs throughout the exhibition period, such as artist talks that delve into the range of practices and performances of a healing ritual aimed at addressing the impacts of colonialism.
