Decolonial Hacker

Sarah Ihmoud () constellates genocide, tactics of starvation, and the Palestinian womb through the story of her friend, Shema Jaber Thabet, a new mother in Gaza. Beginning in October 2023, Sarah follows the events of Shema’s life: mapping the violence of zionist warfare as it punctuates and intervenes into an experience of Palestinian motherhood, survival, and love. Shema’s insistence to live in spite of these conditions demonstrates “a refusal to cede the future” to the zionist entity; with her life becoming, as Sarah writes, “a profound lens through which to theorize the Palestinian womb as both a target of zionist colonial violence and a site of Palestinian futurity.” 🧑‍🧑‍🧒🇵🇸

farid rakun () of ruangrupa—Artistic Directors of documenta fifteen—provides insight into two key moments from 2022 that encapsulate the humiliation and hurt felt by the collective at the hands of this German institution, its public, and the country writ large. Written as a play-script and accompanied by rakun’s original illustrations, this piece demonstrates the nature of ruangrupa as a horizontal collective that is incompatible with the depravity, cowardice, and idiocy of a vertical, German institutional structure. Writes rakun: “This is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to actual persons or events, is, most of the time, intentional.” 🪧🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒🏤
