As part of the accompanying program, the artist Kameelah Janan Rasheed presents a performance lecture in which she traces the links between her exhibition at KW and the accompanying publication. Under the title in the coherence, we weep, she discusses space as index, the practice of continuous revision through annotation, and the blurring and layering of knowledge associated with it. Rasheed describes herself as a learner; her work continually explores the materiality and legibility of text, writing, and language, and the potential of translation between different mediums. In doing so, she seeks new levels of meaning as well as methods of knowledge production, both through improvisation and in exchange with her interdisciplinary environment.

 

Kameelah Janan Rasheed is the recipient of the Schering Stiftung Award for Artistic Research 2022. It has grown out of the Schering Stiftung Art Award, which was awarded biannually to international artists between 2005 and 2018. In 2019, the award was redesigned together with the Berlin Senate Department for Culture and Community. The 2022 edition of the Schering Stiftung Award for Artistic Research is the seventh time that Schering Stiftung has collaborated with KW.
