Cédric Fauq
(France/United Kingdom)
"Born in France, based in the UK, I am currently working on the term blackness in its conceptual, material and social implications. I am particularly trying to challenge the exhibition format as a device to deal with blackness beyond the use of representational strategies. Practitioners I am closely working with manipulating ideas such as non-performance, darkness/ opacity/transparency, knowledge disruption, and appropriation, among others. I am also developing ideas around the potential for art institutions to re-invent what an institution is and do, and how this can have an impact on the rethinking / abolishing of the carceral, legal, financial and psychiatric institutions."
