Exposição reúne a obra de artistas da África que vivem nos Estados Unidos

States of Becoming (Estados do tornar-se) investiga as forças dinâmicas de relocação, reassentamento e assimilação que moldam as práticas artísticas de um grupo de 17 artistas da contemporaneidade africana que viveram e trabalharam nos Estados Unidos. O conceito da exposição foi desenvolvido com base na experiência vivida pelo curador Fitsum Shebeshe após sua mudança, em 2016, de Adis Abeba, Etiópia, para Baltimore, EUA, e seu posterior conhecimento das dificuldades da assimilação cultural. “States of Becoming nasceu do meu próprio processo de mudança para os Estados Unidos em 2016”, diz Shebeshe. “Essa exposição permite uma melhor compreensão não apenas das minhas próprias experiências quanto das experiências de artistas. Ao analisar tanto os aspectos únicos quanto os pontos em comum com as comunidades globais e locais do The African Center, é possível reimaginar coletivamente o que pensamos sobre o processo de como a identidade é formada e reformulada.”

Artistas: Gabriel C. Amadi-Emina, Kearra Amaya Gopee, Kibrom Araya, Nadia Ayari, Vamba Bility, Elshafei Dafalla, Masimba Hwati, Chido Johnson, Miatta Kawinzi, Dora King, Helina Metaferia, Nontsikelelo Mutiti, Yvonne Osei, Kern Samuel, Amare Selfu, Tariku Shiferaw, and Yacine Tilala Fall.
