We are excited to invite you to our next MESAAS Visiting Artist Series events. This series invites artists from the Middle East, South Asia, and Africa to share their work through open discussions, screenings, and workshops. Join us for these special opportunities to engage with the artists’ practices and their insights into the social and political contexts shaping their work.
February 12, 2025
5-6.30PM – 403 Knox Hall
Binta Diaw, an Italian-Senegalese artist, explores migration, belonging, history, and gender through her installations and site-specific projects. Influenced by intersectionality and eco-feminism, using materials like earth, plants, and hair she explores the power of materiality and its impact on perception. Drawing on her diasporic identity, Diaw challenges Eurocentric narratives, reinterpreting history through her art’s sensory and conceptual layers.
