This year, KIKK collaborates with Ker Thiossane & The Dak'Art Bienale with curators Delphine Buysse and Manon Louisgrand Sylla to show a selection of artists from the African Continent and the diaspora in the exhibition.
For the AFRIKIKK, Jacque is presenting “MaaSci », a serie of digital collage/photo. She is giving a tribute to the Massai tribe from Kenya, Tanzania and to all african tribes. By incorporating elements from their culture in sci-fi scapes, she is creating new dimension. She is clearly serving in the ranks of afrofuturism which is a XXst century’s cyberculture tending to re-appropriate black imaginary and identity.
