Part of our Maud Sulter Live Programme

An afternoon of presentations and conversations from artists, curators, performers and academics responding to Maud Sulter: You are my kindred spirit, and Maud Sulter's legacy.

On the final weekend of our Maud Sulter exhibition, the live programme will culminate in ‘Call and Response’, directly inspired by Maud's groundbreaking 1988 essay of the same name. The event will bring together artists, writers, performers and scholars to contribute reflections on Maud’s work and legacy through presentations relating to both their own and Maud’s practice. 

In Sulter’s essay, the artist writes ‘Who makes Black women's work visible if not other Black women?,’ later declaring: ‘No longer being afraid of our erotic, and the source of our creativity: we can go forward to a passionate future. As Blackwomen, as friends.’. This event will echo Sulter’s sentiment of re-centring practices of black, female and queer practitioners, whilst reflecting on personal and shared dialogues between the artists and their work.

Presentations will be followed by an in-conversation moderated by curator, researcher and writer, and co-founder of the independent curatorial project Mother Tongue, Tiffany Boyle.


The Maud Sulter Live Programme curated by Pelumi Odubanjo accompanies our current exhibition Maud Sulter - You are my kindred spirit, open until 30 March 2025.
