COLLABORATOR

Rahima Gambo is a visual artist who came to artistic practice from photojournalism and independent long form documentary projects. She explores the experimental and conceptual territories between documentary, psycho-geography, socio-politics, ecology, and autobiography. Her practice ranges from drawing, video, sculpture, installation and sound, using them as extended poetic and speculative tools that enquire around documentary processes that lie outside pre-existing traditions. Each “project” for her is an attempt at map-making a situated, active, embodied vision/knowledge production, at the center of which lies notions of “care” and an attention to power relations at play in the processes of documentary, storytelling and photography. Her work is circular, collaborative, continuous and serial in nature, with repetition and return as essential to her practice.
