This selection embodies extraordinary African creativity, with a diversity of mediums, techniques and artistic universes. From drawing to virtual reality, including sound, sculpture and even photography, the selection process for the international exhibition was guided by a commitment to inclusiveness, the search for a balance that transcends borders and celebrates the rich tapestry of artistic voices. Artists from the African diaspora bring their experiences as Africans and Afrodescendants across the world, and will rub shoulders with artists w ho live and work on the African continent.
