Camille is an invited artist in the 11th BNSC in Trois Rivieres. Afronautic Research Lab responds to the biennale's 2024 theme Oui Dire, which questions the way in which hearsay, through its possibilities of translation and transmission, can prove to be a means of embodying new forms of learning, outside the habits of knowledge transmission imposed by the institutions of power resulting from modernism and the whiffs of imperialism. Can hearsay serve the argument, the understanding of situations rather than hindering a certain critical thinking? How is this model of transmission – from word of mouth – likely to influence the operating models of our societies and lead us to think about the situation differently? Is this not a tool to invoke new futures?
