AFTERLIVES/AFTERSPACES

JUNE - DECEMBER 2026

WHAT SURVIVES AFTER A DECADE OF ARTISTIC INTERVENTIONS?

Marking a decade of the Revolving Art Incubator (RAI), this programme reflects on the incubator as both a site and a method, an evolving space that has continually negotiated the boundaries between place and world, artist and audience, archive and experimentation.

#TENTEN Afterlives / Afterspaces considers what remains, what transforms, and what emerges from ten years of artistic incubation.

The programme unfolds across June–December 2026 as a series of overlapping temporal and spatial registers, bringing together over 100 artists, curators, filmmakers, futurists, traditional knowledge holders and thinkers in the city of Lagos:

Residues

revisiting past works, archives, and unresolved propositions

Reactivations

Re-staging, reworking, or re-entering previous gestures

Interferences

new commissions that interrupt continuity and question lineage

Futures-in-Delay

speculative works that resist closure or final form
