"To challenge hegemonic archives and with them the representations of Blackness inhabiting these very spaces, is to struggle for connection, voice, language, not least for images. Even more so in a time and space in which the stickiness of a colonial past is dismissed. Dealing with the hauntings and echoes of Austria's colonial past, Belinda Kazeem-Kamiânski--visual artist, writer, and recipient of the Camera Austria Prize 2021--sets the stage for the what if, while confronting viewers with the violence of the Western gaze. Introducing readers to a multiplicity of voices--artists, thinkers, and scholars with whom she is in conversation and communion--the artist's catalogue opens a space for Black diasporan artistic practices. Here, the reverberating echoes and residues of a past ongoing, become visible as effects in what we have come to call "the present". Hauntings / Heim-Suchungen is edited by the artist and published with Kunsthalle Wien / Stadt Wien Kunst following Belinda Kazeem-Kamiânski's solo show in 2021/2022"--Amazon.com.
