archieven - artistiek onderzoek - film - performance - sculptuur

Ayo's practice en-livens unofficial and official archives. She migrated from Uganda to the Netherlands in her youth; carrying personal and collective histories about her homeland. These recollections are fertile ground for creating plural narratives in conversation with the current cultural contexts she inhabits. With personal engagements of bodies as archives, she studies oral records, intangible forms of cultural heritage, and craft practices among other sources, hoping to honor those who came before her.
