In this episode, Asya Pisarevskaya speaks with Caroline Wanjiku Kihato about how she collaborated with artists to turn stories from her book “Migrant Women of Johannesburg: Life in an in-between City” into a musical composition. Titled “You Will Find Your People Here”, the exhibition at the La Biennale Architettura 2023, is a collaborative of performance, film, composition and artwork by pianist Mareli Stolp (South Africa), sociologist Caroline Wanjiku Kihato (Kenya), composer Clare Loveday (South African) and artist Sedinam Awo Tsegah (Ghana). The project is part of curator’s special project Gender and Geography. The show opens on the 18th May and can be seen until November, 2023. The work is based on Caroline Kihato’s book, Migrant Women of Johannesburg: Everyday Life in an in-between City, (Wits University Press) which explored the lives of women from different parts of the continent who came to live in Johannesburg. It was transformed into a composition by Clare Loveday. Mareli Stolp performed the music at William Kentridge and Bronwyn Lace’s Centre for the Less Good Idea in July 2022, before being chosen for the Biennale. Awo Tsegah joined the project, providing the fabric maps and artwork for the exhibition.
