AR Exhibition: Re/Member Your Descendants

Xabiso Vili, Sonwabo Valashiya
2021, AR exhibition (ZA)

If you were an ancestor, what would your descendants call upon you for? Through a series of interviews with various South Africans, Xabiso Vili, in collaboration with Sonwabo Valashiya, brings the spiritual plane into the physical space. Utilising AR, the interviewees are illustrated as their ancestors and their stories are told through poetry. This AR exhibition (fruit of our Africa-France XR Residency with the Digital Lab Africa) have told you African stories in a way that they have never been seen before.
