this broken piece of yard (Editor)
this broken piece of yard collects contributions by participants to Cairo Clarke's programme developed as part of her Curatorial Fellowship at LUX in 2020/1. Centering learning through practice and embedding Black feminist futurity at its core. Together we honour forms of knowledge production and dissemination that slip between the cracks, are formed on unstable ground, and take on multiple temporalities.
