THE MISSING CHAPTER TMC COLLECTIVE SHOWCASE and Series of Events

  • Lara Zade Akinnawo

Autograph ABP presents the TMC Collective Showcase featuring new multi-media productions by young creative practitioners responding to 19th century photography associated with Autograph ABP’s ongoing archive research project, The Missing Chapter.

As part of The Missing Chapter Collective (formed at Autograph ABP) I contibuted to the production of a highly attended showcase, and series of talks concerning our interpretation of a selection of Autograph's archive photography.
Over a period of six months the group have met with artist-mentors and guest speakers from a number of disciplines to review, question and interpret issues around cultural memory, representation and the archive, in order to produce new works and curate a programme of events in January 2016. Using the image portfolio from The Missing Chapter as their point of departure, the TMC Collective’s engagement bridges their contemporary moment with historic research to invoke a wider conversation with their peers and encourage more activity and participation from a younger generation around archives and heritage.
