Kapwani Kiwanga: Performing Artist in New York

About Kapwani Kiwanga

Kapwani Kiwanga is a Canadian and French artist based in Paris, working across exhibitions and live presentation. Her projects draw on archival research and social history, tracking how power moves through colonial legacies, gendered systems, and the African diaspora. In New York City, her work appears at The Studio Museum in Harlem in the context of *Kapwani Kiwanga: BLEED*. Her approach favors precision over spectacle, letting materials and language carry the argument.
