For An Other to exist, encountering others is necessary, and why EdKe exists. As event of abundant love and compelling contradictions, this manifestation includes installations as life-like art; related to a pedagogy to avoid polarizing politics. In pursuit of creating this ‘solo’ show, spectators were co-producers.
This exhibition was made possible financially, thanks to: CATAPULT Stay Home Artist Residency, awarded to Miguel Keerveld; A Caribbean Arts Grant developed by Kingston Creative (Jamaica) and Fresh Milk (Barbados); funded by the US Friends of Jamaica | The AFJ (US) & De HAL, Paramaribo Nilsprint N.V., Paramaribo
