As part of Africa2020, Triangle-Astérides and Triangle network are delighted to invite South African artist and curator Ziphozenkosi Dayile and the Breaking Bread collective to develop a new project, titled Commun.e, taking place both in Marseille and online.  

Based on a transdisciplinary approach, Commun.e will involve a wide range of formats such as residencies, performances, screenings and an online platform that will broadcast ideas, experimentations and artworks produced within the frame of the project. Commun.e examines the importance of local knowledge and practices of communal caregiving in the ongoing quest for community wellbeing and processes of decolonization. The programme is conceived as a springboard for further knowledge exchange and production, gathering multiple perspectives.

Departing from collaborative methodologies, Commun.e is questioning the renewal of artistic structures and infrastructures. From it, Triangle Network and its partners are opening new conversations and gathering a new generation of artists and art workers from different African countries, and their diaspora for a summer of collective thinking and potential building, both onsite and online.
