Sepake Angiama
How to Lift Heavy
Sepake Angiama is the artistic director of the Institute for International Visual Art (iniva) in London and a curator and educator whose praxis lies in the discursive and social framework, in order to collectively rewrite our understanding of the world.
This has inspired her to work with artists who disrupt or provoke aspects of the social sphere through action, radical forms of pedagogy, and architecture. While in her position as Head of Education, Documenta 14 she initiated the project Under the Mango Tree – a self-organized gathering of unlearning practices. The second edition (Visva Bharati, Santineketan) brought together artist-led spaces, libraries, and schools interested in unfolding discourses around decolonizing education practices.
