Ihiya: Pieces. Particles. Perpetuity
Ihiya is established around Faraday Muthi Market and Kwa Mai Mai. The critical factor that drives the idea for using the market as a space of learning and teaching for visual storytellers is that the market itself carries attributes towards knowledge cultivation through combustion of a vibrant market community. It intends to allow visual participants to experience a variation of storytelling methods, applying thought-through research development approaches and execution thereof in a collaborative way that allows for an independent individual position to emerge.
Ihiya provides a rich hive for students to explore their inner motives and in that process of documentation gain significant skills and confidence in thinking, investigating, applying and making impactful ethical photographic stories. Visual narratives that are inspired by multiple selves, 鈥渟elf鈥� as a psychoanalytic concept composed of many different self-states with different affective, perceptual, and cognitive features.
This exhibition also includes the work of 2 photographers from Zimbabwe who photographed the Makokoba Market in Bulawayo. This market is similar to the Faraday Muthi Market and Kwa Mai Mai. All these markets are indicative of spaces across the continent that seek to keep the connection between traditional African beliefs in cosmopolitan urban contexts.
