About the exhibition

Grappling with a certain intimate disorganisation within conditions of the Black Outside, the curatorial project 'D̶e̶l̶a̶y̶and Encounter and/or Other Proximate Unknowns' brings together six artistic positions that think about sonicity and Black study, built environments and spatial discourse, ecologies, processes of collectivity, and archiving. From this vantage point, outside denotes a particular spatio-temporal disposition. The Black Outside can thus be understood as a paradoxical assemblage of malleable and contingent forms of being, doing, occupying, and inhabiting. The exhibition is speculating with and alongside the figure of W.E.B. Du Bois.

The project includes responses from internationally-based artists and collectives including Jabu Arnell, Ola Hassanain, Nii Noi Nortey, Natalie Paneng, room19isaFactory., Luana Vitra. 'D̶e̶l̶a̶y̶and Encounter and/or Other Proximate Unknowns' is curated by Sinethemba Twalo for Nothing Gets Organised–NGO in conversation with the Foundation for Contemporary Art–Ghana.

The kick-off for the touring exhibition was by Foundation for Contemporary Art-Ghana at ifa Gallery Stuttgart with 'if we're happy in our dreams, does that count?'.
