Shaping the Past
With Tomie Arai and Alisha B. Wormsley
Tomie Arai and
Alisha B. Wormsley are among the 2020 Shaping the Past fellows with Monument Lab and the Goethe-Institut. Individually, their work endeavors to hold space for who/what is already present and project their specific communities into the future against forces of structural racism (neglect, urban renewal, gentrification). Together, the two fellows will consider their practices at large, and methods for revisioning the past in ways that do not seek to harm.
This event is part of
Marking Absences – Shifting Narratives and is presented by the Goethe-Institut New York and 1014 as part of
Shaping the Past, a project of the Goethe-Institut, Monument Lab, and the Federal Agency for Civic Education.
Shaping the Past connects memory workers across Canada, Mexico, the US, and Germany who have piloted new approaches to shape the past in their own local contexts.
