The conference and the performance will center on whiteness and coloniality.
Trinity Mesimé Njume-Ebong is a curator and researcher. Her work lies at the intersection of the arts and the social sciences. She wrote her master's thesis (University of Zurich) on ‘Alpine Primitivism’ and the decolonisation strategies of the Europe department at MEG under the supervision of Bernard Crettaz.
Gilles Furtwängler lives and works between Lausanne and Johannesburg. His visual production starts from orality: he transcribes and reworks words heard or read using contexts, colours and substances, in order to question our ways of thinking and representing.

MEG x CCA
The Centre Culturel Afropea (CCA) is an itinerant organisation that operates in the interstices of institutions, contributing to an Afro-diasporic perspective by programming interventions by artists, researchers and performers.

Join us in the Salon of the temporary exhibition from 6 pm to 8 pm on sunday the 7th of December.
