Finding Fanon Gaiden: Delete (Sara's Story) shows a soberly dressed, lone female traveller walking at sunset along a railway track in a barren, uncanny digital landscape. Who is she and why is she there? What is her destination, and will she make it?
Through their work, Achiampong and Blandy examine ideas of communal and personal heritage, using performance to investigate cultural hierarchies and the “fiction of the self”. Over the past three years, Achiampong and Blandy have exhibited, performed and showcased artworks and projects in the UK and internationally together in spaces such as Tate Modern (London), Fabrica (Brighton), Iniva (London), Modern Art Oxford, Spike Island (Bristol), ICI/Savvy Contemporary (Berlin) and Stony Island Arts Bank (Chicago).
PRAKSIS is an Oslo-based not-for-profit organisation running multidisciplinary residencies that focus on developing creative practices through shared experience and cross-cultural exchange.
