They function simultaneously as subject, methodology, and forms of knowledge production that resist market imperatives and national categorisation, privileging shared learning and collective sustainability. "Schools" is one of several loose compositional motifs Kouoh devised to structure the exhibition, alongside Shrines, Procession, and Rest.
