Roots in Motion//Ausstellung
In the organizer's words:
Roots in Motion//Exhibition at the uzwei in the Dortmunder U
📅 Duration: 04.07.-05.10.2025
🎟 Free admission
How can art be a common ground for talking about different experiences, life stories and cultural backgrounds - especially about roots that have been passed on by African parents, grandparents or communities?
The Roots in Motion exhibition brings together young African and Afro-diasporic artists who deal with origin, identity and migration in a variety of ways. African and Afro-diasporic identities are revealed in a wide variety of forms - shaped by different realities, ages, biographies and cultural influences.
In an open process of artistic searching, experimentation and rejection, works are created in areas such as visual art, photography, video, text work, music and tech art. The exhibition also takes up aspects such as fashion, textile art, soul food and upcycling and combines local and international perspectives.
Roots in Motion stands for the diversity of cultural forms of expression - regardless of whether they are described as African, Afro-diasporic or both. The exhibition is a space for reflection, visibility and exchange about belonging, migration, multiple affiliations, trauma, opportunities and new beginnings.
In cooperation with VKII Ruhrbezirk, special thanks to: Projekt Ankoppeln - VMDO Dortmund - OGames
