< p> 

... imagination is a contested field of action\, not an ephem eral afterthought that we have the Luxury to dismiss or romanti­cize\, but a resource\, a battleground\, an input and output of technology and social order. In fact\, we should acknowledge that most people are forced to Live inside someone else's imagination and one of the things we have to come to grips with is how the nightmares that many people are forced to endure are the underside of elite fantasies about efficiency\, profit and social contr ol. - Ruha Benjamin

 

Organized in concert with the 44th Annual AHVA Graduate Symposium of the same name\, R adical (Re)worlding is a juried exhibition that looks squarely at the present with the goal of opening to radically different\, speculative f utures.

Forty-plus years ago\, Gayatri Spivak defined “worlding” as t he transformation of the colonized space by colonizers (e.g. through map ma king). Can we retake or remake that term? Rath­er than hit \, can we\ , in fact\, do better?

Another world is possible.

 

We ac knowledge that the UBC Point Grey campus is situated on the traditional\, a ncestral\, and unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam).

This exhibition is made possible by th e generous support of the Audain Endowment for Curatorial Studies.
