Come join us at Gerrit Rietveld Academie tomorrow. dr. meLê yamomo and his Sound as Decolonial Method class will give a performance lecture together as part of the “Plot(ting) Launch” organized and curated by Liza Prins.

Join us for an afternoon of talks, performances, bites, and drinks. We are delighted to invite you to the launch of the publication of Plot(ting) on April 17th from 14:30 to 19:00, hosted at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie, Fedlev Building, Room FL101.

Rooted in the Art & Spatial Praxis research group, Plot(ting) emerges as a publishing platform showcasing art, research, and spatial practices. Inspired by the groundbreaking theories of Jamaican critic Sylvia Wynter on space and narrative, Plot(ting) investigates ‘plotting’ as a form of artistic practice. The publication features a diverse array of contributions that extend beyond the written word, including dance and lecture-performances, audio landscapes, video art, and photography. These works collectively offer innovative perspectives on spatial relationships and artistic intervention.

14:30 – 17:00

Performances and talks by: meLê yamomo, S*an D. Henry Smith, Francisca Khamis Giacoman, Derica Shields, Patricia de Vries, Liza Prins, and Maisa Imamović.

17:00 -19:00

Join us for a communal dinner in the Sanberg kitchen with Lina Bravo Mora and Mayıs Rukel of Radical Roots. Together, we will hold space to remember food as belonging, tenderness, and ancestral care.
