The Institute of African Studies and the Migration and Diaspora Studies Initiative presentThenjiwe Niki Nkosi.
\n<\/strong>
\nThenjiwe Niki Nkosi<\/strong> was born in New York and has lived in Harare and Johannesburg since the early 1990s. She is a painter, video artist and filmmaker who divides her time between studio work and navigating the field of art as social practice. Her work investigates power and its political, social and architectural structures. Implicit in her examination of these structures is an interrogation of the invisible forces that create them, and an imagining of alternatives (http:\/\/thenjiwenkosi.com\/<\/a>).<\/p>\n

She will be visiting Ottawa from March 25th<\/sup> to April 1st<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

In a series of events, she will introduce and discuss a screening of Border Farm<\/em>, a multimedia project on the South African\/Zimbabwean border that she produced in collaboration with Zimbabwean migrant farm workers (http:\/\/borderfarm.blogspot.ca\/<\/a>).<\/p>\n

She will do so in two Carleton classes that will be open to the wider public as well as in a larger public event:<\/p>\n

* Thursday, March 26th<\/sup>, 8:35-9:55am; 10:05-11:25am
\nIn the following two classes, Ms. Nkosi will look at the Border Farm project and situate the project, as well as the film Border Farm, within a few broader discussions, including:<\/p>\n

– the challenges and opportunities of collaborative\/participatory art or research projects<\/p>\n

– film (and photography) as both an end and means in creative or research-based projects that seek to have a social impact<\/p>\n

– the realities of south-south migration, in this case, Zimbabwe to South Africa.<\/p>\n

The classes are:
\n–FILM 3608 B<\/strong>, Topics in Film History, Topic: African Cinema, Prof. Aboubakar Sanogo, ST. Patrick\u2019s Building #417, 8:35-9:55
\n– AFRI 3001A<\/strong>, Globalization and Popular Culture in Africa, , Prof. Nduka Otiono, Southam Hall #413, 10:05-11:25<\/p>\n

* Tuesday, March 31st<\/sup>, 7-9pm<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cCamera obscura:\u00a0The promise and the perils of collaborative filmmaking<\/em>\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n
