KAM

The kam Project is a personal and subjective narrative about memory as resistance. The memory in question is that which opposes the weapons of resistance and knowledge to the "abyss of slavery" in the words of French writer Edouard Glissant. It takes the form of a "photographic archipelago" across the Atlantic and Mediterranean world, taking place in different territories of West Africa, Europe, the Caribbean and the Americas. Resistance to slavery and colonialism is proposed here not as a photographic "subject" but as a possible reading grid to approach contemporary practices of resistance that inhabit and live from the margins. The KAM project wishes to unveil the symbolic, political and historical links that connect these "dissident" practices, by offering us a possible photographic counter-narrative to think about the contemporary issues of modernity/coloniality.
