Work created and designed by Kukily, an Afrofeminist artistic collective.
XTRÆNCESTRAL is a philosophical concept created by the Kukily that proposes an Afro-future built from ancestral memory and the rebirth of indigenous knowledge. We share this concept in the form of a multimedia installation, a physical space.
