Video Still – The sculptures weren’t white.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]NEVER CROSS THE SAME RIVER TWICE<\/strong> encompasses large-scale videographies that aim to support new kinds of transnational and global encounters. The selected video works are sites of visual contestation, realist in style with narratives that review the past, guarantee chronicles and ancestors, decolonize the brain and the creative mind.<\/p>\n

Alluding to Heraclitus’river, which viewed the way of life as a substance in constant transition and vacillation, the title of the project is a call to imagine new natural, political, and administrative foundations and frameworks established. In examining the restrictions of film as activism, much of the work of interest reflects what Argentine scholar Walter D. Mignolo calls the important epistemic challenge and decolonial opportunity to remake a just future.<\/p>\n

NEVER CROSS THE SAME RIVER TWICE opens up shattering ghostly results of new imaginaries. It hopes to extend and densify the interconnected themes woven into the presentation program: history, filiation, ethnography, otherness, memory, colonization, Afrofuturism, women’s liberation, diaspora, personality, globalization, myth.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Kisito Assangni<\/strong> is a Togolese-French curator and consultant who studied museology at Ecole du Louvre in Paris.
