Founded in 2017 by Rosa Spaliviero and Sammy Baloji, the studio works in the terrain between visual and multimedia art, in particular on film and documentary production.

Starting with research into the cultural, architectural, and industrial heritage of Congo, they explore the ways colonial practices may have shaped, transformed, deformed, and reinvented identities – including modern ones.
