Follow Imayna Caceres on her My View tour of „And if I devoted my life to one of its feathers?“
In her practise, the artist, writer and researcher is interested in the makings of communities in more-than-human worlds, who engages with forms of knowledge that exceed modernity and Western knowledge.
„And if I devoted my life to one of its feathers?“, the joint exhibition of Kunsthalle Wien and Wiener Festwochen, curated by Miguel A. López, reflects on the rationale of exploitation, the fast-paced mining of raw materials, and environmental destruction as a colonial legacy. It tells the story of Indigenous struggles for collective survival and celebrates encounters defined by solidarity in their resistance to misogyny, imperialist violence, and state oppression. Some of the contributions are a specific response to the Covid-19 pandemic – not just as a health crisis, but also as one of ecological and social justice.
„And if I devoted my life to one of its feathers?“, 15/5 – 26/9 2021, Kunsthalle Wien Museumsquartier
