Who’s Afraid of Labour Justice?

Presenting work by Nahomi Amberber, Saysah, and Farah Ghafoor, Who’s Afraid of Labour Justice? asks what we are afraid of in the pursuit of justice for all workers— does the fear lie in the pursuit itself? Or is it the workers, often coded as monstrous and non-human, that are terrifying? What would it mean to embrace that label, and welcome being the thing that goes bump in the night? How have we been rendered alien from nature, one another, our bodies, and ourselves? And what would it take to mend this?

Through a multi sensorial-scape, the exhibition explores and unravels memory, the naming of fear, presence and absence, and the ways capitalism impacts how we show up, or become ghosts, in our own bodies and worlds. As we reckon with this, what lingers and haunts us through the cycles of revolutionary efforts that propel us forward? Curated by Furqan Mohamed.
