Hosted by the Department of Middle East, South Asian, & African Studies (MESAAS)

Binta Diaw, an Italian-Senegalese artist, explores migration, belonging, history, and gender through her installations and site-specific projects. Influenced by intersectionality and eco-feminism, using materials like earth, plants, and hair she explores the power of materiality and its impact on perception. Drawing on her diasporic identity, Diaw challenges Eurocentric narratives, reinterpreting history through her art's sensory and conceptual layers.
