Artist talks
Malmö
KHM x MMM presents a broad programme of internationally active artists, theorists, writers and curators connected to current themes and exhibitions. The programme and the invited speakers are presented continuously. Free admission.
7 May: Nikima Jagudajev
Within the framework of the lecture series KHMxMMM, Moderna Museet Malmö is visited by artist and choreographer Nikima Jagudajev who currently has an exhibition at Accelerator in Stockholm.
Nikima Jagudajev is a U.S.-born, Austrian/Uzbek choreographer based in Brussels and New York. Nikima’s process-based and collaborative practice examines social relations as spatial connections, exploring how we come together in fulfilling and considerate ways. Using the choreography of play as a framework, a world is being built, incorporating elements such as food, clothing, live music, a deck of cards, and secrets. Nikima refers to this as ‘the playground,’ where performers and visitors are involved in an open-ended game.
