Episode 27: Following the Purse with Onyedika Chuke (Teaser)

See here for full episode: patreon.com/aqnbIn this episode Steph speaks with Onyedika Chuke, an artist and archivist whose largest body of work — 'The Forever Museum Archive' — is a growing collection of sculptures, text and images examining different social, cultural and political structures, while analyzing their interconnectedness. The project has been running for a decade now, starting as an essay and expanding into multiple forms and exhibitions in a number of locations around the world. Its most current iteration at New York’s Governor’s Island — ‘The Forever Museum Archive_Circa 6000BCE’ — explores where patronage, capital and religion intersects with the carceral system. Born in Onitsha, Nigeria and based in New York, Onyedika also co-runs Storage Gallery on the Bowery, an archive and curatorial project aimed at highlighting the work of women artists and artists of color, while combining his experience as a maker, community member, activist and dealer to find ways to create more equity in the art world.
