To explore the role of ruptures in archives, the open exhibition lab highlights processes of radical change and dis:continuity in archives and private collections. Understanding ruptures as ‘a moment at which value emerges through a break’ (Holbraad, Kapferer and Sauma 2019), artists and activists will present their work with archives and collections, archived objects, and materials (e.g. sound files, documents, films, photographs, textiles, etc.) to show a variety of ruptures and their impacts on alternative histories, memory production, community building and resistance.
