They embody both protection and connectedness as well as fragility and strength. Inspired by animal survival strategies such as camouflage and nocturnal activity, as well as ideas from science fiction, Afrofuturism and posthumanism, Sandra Mujinga creates an atmosphere in which duplication becomes a strategy for disappearance. With her work, Mujinga poses fundamental questions about visibility, identity and transformation, guided by her keen interest in bodies and skin. Reflective objects enhance visual duplication and sensory stimulation, while an electronic soundtrack adds an acoustic dimension to this seemingly speculative world. Inspired by Naomi Klein&#8217;s concept of the doppelg\u00e4nger, Skin to Skin explores how bodies elude unambiguous readability through repetition and abstraction, thus opening up new spaces for speculative resistance in the context of (digital) control and surveillance. Skin to Skin invites us to imagine fluid, hybrid and resistant forms of existence beyond conventional categories \u2013 poetic, political and radically contemporary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sandra Mujinga \u2013 Skin to Skin<\/strong><br>29.01.2026 \u2013 31.05.2026<br>Belvedere 21<br>Arsensalstra\u00dfe 1<br>1030 Vienna<br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.belvedere.at\">www.belvedere.at<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>29.01.2026 \u2013 31.05.2026 At the centre of the exhibition is a mysterious group of 55 identical larger-than-life figures \u2013 ghostly, hybrid beings resembling avatars, deep-sea creatures or apparitions from another dimension.
