Episode 40: She, Who Dwells in the Shadows

How do you conjure a past for which no records exist in official archives? How do you speak about alternative futures in a present that seems to allow no alternatives? In episode 40 of our Im Kunstraum podcast, guest curator Kinnari Saraiya provides insight into the conceptual universe of her exhibition She, Who Dwells in the Shadows. Together with six artistic positions, she invites viewers to explore the dark and the obscure as realms of buried, suppressed, but also emancipatory narratives. In conversation with the artistic director of the Kunstraum, Frederike Sperling, Saraiya explains how darkness and imagination are connected and what subversive potential storytelling holds.
