UNRAVELING THE (UNDER-) DEVELOPMENT COMPLEX OR TOWARDS A POST- (UNDER-) DEVELOPMENT INTERDEPENDENCE is a daring effort to analyze the status quo and imagine a world that doesn’t exist in the binary of “development” and “underdevelopment”. It manifests itself in multiple locales (Bandjoun, Nairobi, Berlin, Abidjan, and Johannesburg) as a series of research, exhibitions, performances, lectures, conversations and workshops around the myths of “development” and “underdevelopment” as well as imagining and crafting a Post-(Under)Development world. The project aims at gathering a network of activists, sonic agitators, scholars, artists and designers, political economists and practitioners to share knowledge across languages as well as sonority to imagine and shape together a post developmental age. A pluriverse of interdependent imaginations, visions and strategies, away from capitalist and industrial productivity and toward transformative conviviality. Artistic direction & concept by SAVVY's departing director Bonaventure Soh Bejeng Ndikung. Curated by Juan Pablo García Sossa and Hajra Haider Karrar. Curatorial assistants: (COOP tutors) Sagal Farah and Billy Fowo, Hubert Gromny (DAI, 2020) and Kelly Krugman. Exhibition (within the 2-year project) to be seen at SAVVY till the 27th of January, 2022.

Clementine Edwards (DAI, 2018) is one of the artists in Material Memory, a group exhibition that traces the mechanisms of memory in the tangible, material world. Clem's sculptures focus on her explorations into copper and rice – both materials have their own geographic signatures depending on where they're grown/extracted, and are ubiquitous and essential to ongoing human life on earth. The exhibition at TENT runs till 19-02-2023.

For her project "TEXT/TEXTILE; crocheting for beginners in critical theory", artist Vita Buivid (DAI, 2020) organized a series of workshops and gatherings during which she invited volunteers to collectively work on a large crocheted artwork and discuss topics such as ageism, resilience and longevity. Together, participants worked through the social fabric of our time and knitted together the spaces that seem to separate us from each other. The end result, large crocheted panels with inserted texts is still to be seen at the exhibition "TEXT/TEXTILE; not (too) old, not (too) young" - till 10 December - in the chapel of HMK
