‘A Portable Printed Exhibition Space’
Pina is a fascinating publication that collaborates with artists to commission two ‘exhibitions’ across the magazine’s pages.
In this lime green sophomore edition, Forensic Architecture presents ‘A Counter-Archive of the Ovaherero and Nama Genocide’, while Edgar Calel documents his family’s ritual of retelling their dreams and engraving them on the walls of their home. Both exhibitions explore how images help us envision, remember, and treasure different ‘lifeworlds’. In conversation, Agata Nguyen Chuong, Eyal Weizman, Zoé Samudzi and Irmgard Emmelhainz reflect on the genocidal impulses of modernity in light of recent events. Meanwhile, Edgar Calel and Lisette Lagnado discuss the process of bringing dreams from the subconscious into the present and savouring their meanings. You’ll also find short stories by Portia Subran and Rémy Ngamije.
