transfeminisms co-curator Christine Eyene will discuss Josèfa Ntjam’s video work Dislocations (2022) in relation to the figure of Cameroonian anti-colonial activist and writer Marthe Ekemeyong Moumié (1931-2009). Ekemeyong Moumié was the former wife of anti-colonialist and political leader Félix-Roland Moumié (1925-1960) whom she met in Lolodorf in 1947.

Revisiting Ekemeyong Moumié’s writings and journey, the talk will explore narratives of resistance from women’s perspectives, their legacies today, mutism, generational trauma, and how Josèfa Ntjam uses oral history, archive, and fictional imagery to engage with these topics.
