About the Lecture

This lecture will host Vivian Cintra (she/her), Brazilian multidisciplinary artist, curator, lawyer, and Co-founder/Co-chair of ENGAGEMENT ARTS NL, and Ilga Minjon curator and tutor at Design Academy Eindhoven. Together they will reflect on the topic of speaking, exploring who’s voices we listen to why, and what they are used for.

About the speakers

Vivian (She/Her) is a Brazilian multidisciplinary artist, curator, lawyer, writer and researcher currently based in Rotterdam. Alumni of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam, her research-based practice includes textile sculptures, performances, writings and video installations. Her works are a combination of autonomous and socially oriented projects, the latter commonly starting from a very personal story that unravels to reveal larger social-political issues at the root of it. Vivian is also the Co-Founder and Co-chair of ENGAGEMENT ARTS NL, an artist-led non-profit organization that advocates for safer working spaces within the arts in The Netherlands through public engagement, education, and research contribution.

Ilga Minjon (she/her) is a curator, researcher and advisor working at Stroom Den Haag and a tutor at Design Academy Eindhoven with a background in Art History, and interests in societal questions around public space, ecology, and technology. She aims to weave future imaginaries from artistic practices that speculate on the senses and (networked) relations, as well as on queer, decolonial and feminist re-writings of belonging.
