Traveling Art Exhibit by Alejandra Gaviria-Sevra and David Ng

About the Event

In this event, Alejandra Gaviria-Sevra and David Ng presented the “Travelling Art Exhibit” test concept as part of their ongoing work with the Transformative Memory International Network (TMIN). The event brought together artists, scholars, and activists to explore the exhibit’s pedagogy and conceptual framework. They introduced the exhibition’s purpose—to foster collective conversations on memory, art, and justice—and showcased a selection of multidisciplinary works, including visual art, performance, and installations,

reflecting on themes of structural and colonial violence. After witnessing the exhibit, participants engaged in group discussions, reflecting on the role of local art in transformative memory work. These conversations explored how community-based curation can challenge dominant narratives, amplify marginalized voices, and create spaces for dialogue and healing. Attendees shared insights on the intersection of activism, storytelling, and artistic expression, considering how memory practices could foster solidarity across different cultural and historical contexts.
