À propos de

Over the past months, Polly Wright, Danit Ariel, Ricardo Reveron Blanco and Jazz Swali have been immersed in the Tessa Boffin archive, held across the University for the Creative Arts and The estate of Tessa Boffin/The Gupta+Singh Archives. Through this research, they have been asking: what does it mean to activate an archive as a generative, collective space, one that speaks to the urgencies of queer and feminist communities today?

Tessa Boffin: Where We Touch the Archive is grounded in a collective, intersectional approach to curatorial research, led by four emerging curators whose practices are rooted in queer and feminist frameworks: Polly Wright (Devonshire Collective, Eastbourne), Jazz Swali (BACKLIT, Nottingham), Ricardo Reverón Blanco (previously Aspex Portsmouth), and Danit Ariel (Photoworks).

Join us to hear from the curatorial team as they share their research and reflections on working with the archive.
