Join us for In Pieces, a collage workshop that invites you to explore culture through the powerful lens of your personal experiences. This interactive session will begin with a presentation that will uncover collage as a language of autoethnographic expression, an approach that combines the personal with the cultural to tell stories rooted in individual lived experiences.

Following the presentation, participants will engage in an introspective mind-mapping activity designed to uncover the themes and stories most significant to themselves. This reflective exercise will serve as the foundation for a hands-on collaging workshop, where there will be an opportunity to create your own piece of autoethnographic art.

In transit under another sky is an ambitious exhibition realised across Kampala and Nairobi by curators E.N. Mirembe and Rosie Olang’ Odhiambo. The project brings together the work of 11 artists who engage deeply with themes of transience, marginal identities, and the idea of artistic practice navigating between physical spaces and geographies.

In August, we were pleased to welcome Misheck Masamvu as our second Goodman Gallery-funded resident at G.A.S. Foundation. Known for a distinct practice that spans painting, drawing, and sculpture, Misheck’s residency in Nigeria presents an exciting opportunity for him to engage with and respond directly to the local context through the development of a new body of work.

Misheck, who will spend the majority of his residency at the G.A.S. Farm House in Ijebu, hopes that his immersion in an environment that intersects agricultural life with an artistic setting will provide a fresh perspective and inspire new approaches to his creative process.

Whether starting one’s art career or entering a more established stage, artist residencies can offer valuable resources and professional connections in a mostly opaque art world, not to mention time to focus on making work. Insiders shared the best 35 residencies globally and told us why they're worth it.

This week we’re welcoming multidisciplinary sculptor, filmmaker, and researcher Alexandra Martens Serrano to G.A.S. Lagos. Alexandra was awarded the residency after being selected for the Goethe-Institut supported Studio Quantum programme. This innovative global constellation of residencies and supporting public interventions located across Dublin, Johannesburg, Mexico City, Karlsruhe, Rotterdam, Bangalore and London, will explore emerging quantum technologies through the prism of art.
