Chasing Lizards and Other Memories
The multidisciplinary artist Sherida Kuffour conducts a performative reading of ‘Chasing Lizards and Other Memories’. Her book is a collection of her childhood memories, interpreted in short stories, poetry and photography. Having written the book, Kuffour was confronted with the new existence of her memories; no longer fleeting or transitory in her mind, but rather as something concrete and static on paper. Embedded within a projection of the photographs, she recites these memories to an audience, thus transforming them yet again from exclusive moments belonging to herself, into a new format that becomes experienced and shared amongst us all.
