Even if the memory fades, the body remembers.

The 5th Collective Cares Studio Visit features “Nguni Uteka”, new video work of artist Serah Chule for Mosi Oa Tunya Perennial organised by LoCA. Based on the studio visit and conversation with Serah, Luyando Muleya, as a curator and cultural worker, explores a way to re-tell this folklore with a song - the title of which means “Who is fetching/drawing?” in Tonga language - in today’s context.

2nd [unofficial/speculative] Collective Cares conversation with Luyando on works on view at Mosi oa Tunya Perennial by LoCA. This time we spoke around the film work by Serah Chule “Nguni uteka” performed by Maambo.

Based on my studio visit and conversation with Serah yesterday, this film work really resuscitates multilayered, intergenerational stories and experiences through a song.

New Collective Cares' Relational series entry by Luyando Muleya, a curator and cultural worker.

This notes on livelihood is based on the conversation he had with artist Bruno Cesc Milambo who curates, about “whether curation alone can sustain a life in Zambia, and why the story behind an artist may be the real economy”.

This “floor-level exchanges that never reach wall text” speaks loud.

For the first of the new Relational series of Collective Cares, Naoko met with curator/researcher Lifang Zhang. As well as Lifang's seven years plus of experience in learning contemporary art on the African continent, they chatted about their experience working as foreigners in foreign places.

Lifang curated “Viable Visions,” a retrospective dedicated to work by Zambian artist Martin Abasi Phiri (1957–1997) based on her long-term research since 2018, together with Lusaka Contemporary Art Centre and the Zambia National Visual Arts Council. Following the Lusaka exhibition at LuCAC last year, now the Chipata exhibition at Martin Phiri Gallery Chipata is on until 6th October 2026.
