is a guerrilla theorist and curator hailing from Nairobi, Kenya whose work explores Indigenous cybernetics and love as a method of transportation. Neema’s experimental practice, termed ‘data healing,’ seeks to illuminate the links between technology, nature, and spirituality to investigate how working from this intersection can combat the data trauma – a term coined by Olivia M. Ross – that saturates our virtual worlds. Other projects of Neema’s include Afropresentism, a term they coined in 2017 to articulate digital diasporic cultural production in the here and now, and Radical Love Consciousness, a collective that focuses on re-indigenization through grassroots learning networks.

is a child of ayiti and mali’s diasporas living in tio’tia:ke/mooniyang. their transdisciplinary practice is concerned with care, somatic knowledge(s) and storytelling. their work delves into the discomfort we experience when moving through fear — toward desire. through dialogue-based interventions, nènè invites us to consider incongruities between the futurities we seek in order to shatter illusions of harmony and hold space for divergence.
