Mediated by Adama Sanneh this online talk with multi-media artist Heba Y. Amin analises her social engaged projects in the form of activism and her creation of the Black Athena Art Collective along with the artist Dawit L. Petros.
Heba Y. Amin engages with political themes and archival history, using mediums including film, photography, archival material, lecture performance and installation. Her artistic research addresses the convergence of politics, technology, and architecture, and takes a speculative, often satirical approach to challenge narratives of conquest and control. Amin looks for tactics of subversion and other techniques to flip dominan historical narratives through critical practices.

Untitled #1, The Mangroove: This photograph, comes from my long term project, Paradox of Paradise (POP), through which I respond to a calling; listening to Earth tell her story by looking into our relationship with the landscape, learning how powers, culture, history, time, spirituality and the sacred etch memories into the environment. My travels so far have been in Ghana, Sao Tome and Mozambique.
