Join the research and development awardees of the Infinities Commission 2025 for a sharing of their art practices and works-in-progress.
Each artist will present on their ongoing work, discussing past and future experiments. They will be joined in conversation by critic and curator Oulimata Gueye, who was part of the selection panel for the Infinities Commission 2025, writer and editor Derica Shields, and Rosalie Doubal, Senior Curator, International Art (Performance and Participation).
The Infinities Commission showcases the limitless potential for contemporary art. It provides a platform for artists who disrupt the boundaries between creative disciplines, inviting them to create an experimental new work for the Tanks, Tate Modern’s unique spaces dedicated to performance, installation and film. Each year an expert panel selects one international artist to receive the commission and three artists to receive research and development funding:
Rashida Bumbray
Rashida Bumbray is an artist, curator and choreographer based in Baltimore whose performances draw on African American vernacular and folk forms.
Jean Katambayi Mukendi
Jean Katambayi Mukendi is an artist from the Democratic Republic of Congo, who scrutinises society with a practice exploring mathematics, geometry and electricity through fragile and complex installations.
Xenobia Bailey
Xenobia Bailey is an artist, designer and evolutionary-cultural activist working primarily in fibre and textile, who creates work which combines ancient and Afrofuturist aesthetics.
The talk will be taking place on Zoom so automated captions will be available.
