Indigo Waves and Other Stories: Re-Navigating the Afrasian Sea and Notions of Diaspora
Opening with free admission to the exhibition
On Wednesday, 5 April 2023 from 19:00 we are celebrating the opening of Indigo Waves and Other Stories: Re-Navigating the Afrasian Sea and Notions of Diaspora at the Gropius Bau with free admission to the exhibition and a DJ set by somali vendetta at our restaurant Beba.
Design: 3pc
Indigo Waves and Other Stories: Re-Navigating the Afrasian Sea and Notions of Diaspora brings together works by several contemporary artists, filmmakers, musicians, writers and researchers. Combining new commissions with existing projects, the exhibition traces links between the Asian and African regions, manifesting overlays and diasporic transfers between two areas of increased global political, economic and cultural importance in the 21st century. The Indian Ocean emerges as a communal horizon that reveals shades of cultural, linguistic, political and historical passage from ancient times to the present.
