Patricia Kaersenhout is an award-winning Afro-Dutch multimedia artist and filmmaker. Their multifaceted artistic practice (painting, sculpture, textile, film, performance, dance, installation) rooted in the politics and aesthetics of care, explores feminisms, sexuality, gender, migrations, memory, and the history of slavery as it relates to the African Diaspora. Kaersenhout also crafts counternarratives that challenge official archives and dominant discourses, and spotlights overlooked yet pioneering works by women writers and artists. Kaersenhout's talk will focus on their artwork Liberating the Monument in Braunschweig, Germany, and the Monument of Flight and Resistance in Utrecht, the Netherlands, that both encompass remembrance and healing, and interrogate how public places are transformed through decolonial artistic interventions.
