She explains that her research is a\u00a0decolonial time-machine reacting to sense-memory and political\u00a0landscapes to create Human Monuments about spaces and peoples\u00a0across all cultures to re-invent memorial post-colonial gestures\u00a0towards freedom. These narratives are based on true stories and\u00a0meander with visual fictions.\u00a0Bikoro is a conceptual artist from the region of Woleu-Ntem in\u00a0Gabon and is presently based in Berlin. The crossing of creative\u00a0disciplines reframes her work in various formats within visual cultural discourses,\u00a0continuously attempting relations with the context and site in which she is operating. She\u00a0reframes the contextualisation of creative multi-disciplinarity through the process of\u00a0collaboration with Theatre of the Oppressed (theatre of decolonisation from Brasil), and\u00a0Squat Monuments, a developing theoretical practice by Bikoro on decolonising histories and\u00a0literatures in public space as forms of resistance, protest and community archive. Some of\u00a0her recent collaborators are with Berlin Tempelh\u00f6f Refugee Centre, ETEO Black Diaspora\u00a0School, Mani\u00e8re Noire Gallery, Kuringa Theatre (Anastacia Laboratory &amp; Theatre of the\u00a0Oppressed), Savvy Contemporary, Gallerie Wedding, AfricAvenir, HAU Berlin &amp; District\u00a0Sh\u00f6neberg.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_masonry_media_grid grid_id=&#8221;vc_gid:1586960854050-e628f009-2b20-0&#8243; include=&#8221;9951,4216,4218,4215,9952,9953,9954,9955&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><center>Setembro 2016<\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":15472,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[168],"tags":[244,286],"class_list":["post-15470","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-portfolios","tag-2016-en","tag-previous"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15470","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15470"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15470\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15476,"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15470\/revisions\/15476"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15472"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15470"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15470"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15470"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
