马韦纳·耶韦西 Mawena Yehouessi

Mawena Yehouessi (aka M.Y) is an art curator, a (re)searcher, and an artist. She founded the Black(s) to the Future collective and is currently pursuing a PhD at Villa Arson + Université Côte d’Azur. She lives and works between Paris and Nice. Uncaught through alter-futurisms and poïethic realities, M.Y develops an imploratory (rather than exploratory) collaborative and prospective practice of collage. M.Y’s media thus oscillate from visual/digital syncretism and film-making to poetry writing, translation, pedagogy, concept-coining, collective gathering, study, improvised dancing, making-up parties and calling them exhibitions.
