“Mythologies of Memory” Workshop at LUX

“Mythologies of Memory” is a writing workshop and guided meditation led by multidisciplinary artist Rieko Whitfield. Participants are invited to unravel the illusion of the self, decolonise lived experience from the hegemony of linear time, and employ propositional storytelling to navigate the mythologies of personal identity within shared political landscapes. Memories, affect, and the ritual of writing open portals to reimagining collective narratives.

This workshop is part of Grace Ndiritu – An Absolute River (11 May – 16 Jul 2022), curated by students from the MA Curating Contemporary Art Programme as part of the Graduate Projects 2022, Royal College of Art, in partnership with LUX.
