Not to provide a rigid answer as such\, but to pull apart the nuances of mutuality\, co-existence and multiplicity. \nOnyeka’s practice figures sensorial\, spatial and counter-hegemonic ways of knowing as central to that task. For her\, the body\, archives and narratives both oral and textual act as a mode of enquiry that makes possible the exposition of overlooked histories. \nShe has had solo/duo shows at MoMA PS1\, New York (2023)\, High Line\, New York (2022)\, Mercer Union\, Toronto (2021)\, Jerwood Arts\, London (2019) and Trinity Square Video\, London (2018). Her films have screened in numerous group shows and film festivals worldwide. \nCurrently\, she is Practitioner in Residence at the University of the Arts London and she will participate in the group show ‘Nigeria Imaginary’ in the national pavilion of Nigeria at the upcoming 60th Venice Biennial in 2024. She was awarded the New Cinema Award at Berwick Film and Media Arts Festival 2019\, 2020 Arts Foundation Fellowship\, 2021 Foundwork Artist Prize and has been nominated for the 2022 Jarman Award and Max Mara Artist Prize for Women. Onyeka is represented by Arcadia Missa Gallery. \n\n					\n				\n					\n					About Elaine Joseph\n					\n						Elaine Lillian Joseph is an audio describer based in London and Birmingham. She has a BA in Modern Languages (German) and English Literature and trained as a describer at ITV under Jonathan Penny. She is a founding member of SoundScribe\, a global majority collective of audio describers and consultants and a member of Collective Text\, an organisation supporting accessibility in art and film through creative captioning\, audio description and interpretation. The question that galvanises her practice is how can we honour the labour of access work and create a service that powerfully resonates with users? Collaboration and anti-discrimination activism is key to her work.  \nA selection of recently completed projects include Eve Stainton’s Impact Driver at the Institute for Contemporary Arts in London\, an online screening of Hofesh Shechter’s Political Mother and a newly commissioned audio described track for Black Audio Film Collective’s Handsworth Songs.
