This Webinar Series seeks to continue the ongoing discussions in decolonial thought and visual practices beyond Western-centred conceptualisations of the image. Throughout five sessions, scholars, artists, and curators, will critically approach the concept of the 'gaze' in visual culture, interrogating it from historical, cultural, and ontological standpoints, and addressing the Indigenisation of the image as a means for decolonizing the fields of visual culture and contemporary art studies.
