Victoria-Idongesit Udondian, a Nigerian-American artist, will showcase her durational performance 'Kayeyei: Archive embodied' on May 7, 2026, from 2:30 PM to 3:30 PM CEST at the European Cultural Centre in Venice, Italy, during the Venice Biennale preview week. This performance is part of the 1922 Revisited program, which engages with the historical context of the 1922 Venice Biennale exhibition of African sculpture. Through the act of layering secondhand garments, Udondian transforms the body into a living archive, exploring themes of migration, labor, and the global secondhand clothing trade, particularly referencing the Kantamanto Market in Accra, Ghana. The title 'Kayeyei' reflects the experiences of women porters in Ghanaian markets, symbolizing the burdens they carry in search of labor opportunities. Curated by Dr. Janine A. Sytsma, the performance aims to make material histories tangible and present, turning clothing into a metaphor for memory and identity. The event is supported by various cultural organizations, including the African Art in Venice Forum and the Centre for Contemporary Art Lagos.
