Featuring: Chiara Fumai, Martine Gutierrez, Juliana Huxtable, Jesse Jones, Josèfa Ntjam and Naomi Rincón Gallardo. 

We are delighted to announce the second chapter of transfeminisms a major survey touring exhibition bringing to light a multiplicity of urgent, pressing, and ongoing issues faced by women, queer, and trans people across the globe.

In this chapter, entitled ‘Radical Imaginations’, artists re-envision canons and icons of the past through a prism of dystopian futurism, feminist, and queer empowerment. They engage with questions of religion and ritual, mythology and conspiracy, subverting conventional views.

Futures here are reimagined beyond gender, race, religion, and patriarchy in an attempt to challenge collective consciousness. 

Curated by Christine Eyene, Daria Khan, Jennifer McCabe, and Maura Reilly.
