Neuware -'Meine Geister kommen aus der Vergangenheit und aus der Zukunft.'In ihren Arbeiten erforscht Sandra Mujinga (geb. 1989 in Goma, DRC; lebt und arbeitet in Berlin und Oslo) den Körper und seine Abwesenheit sowie die Beziehungen von menschlichen und nichtmenschlichen Wesen. Dabei sind Mujingas Skulpturen, Installationen, Videoarbeiten, Performances, Fotografien, Musik, Soundscapes und Schriften einprägsame kritische Reflexionen darüber, was kulturelle Produktion bewirken kann und wie die Präsenz eine\*r Künstler\*in über die eigene Arbeit hinaus wahrgenommen und verbreitet wird.Anlässlich der Auszeichnung mit dem Preis der Nationalgalerie 2021 zeigt die Künstlerin mit I Build My Skin with Rocks eine neue Videoarbeit im Hamburger Bahnhof - Nationalgalerie der Gegenwart. Im Mittelpunkt der Arbeit steht ein hybrides Wesen - halb Mensch, halb Elefant -, dessen Erscheinungsbild von Mujingas ausgeprägtem Interesse am Prinzip des Weltenbaus (Worldbuilding) im Science-Fiction-Genre und an den Überlebensstrategien von Tieren geprägt ist. Die gleichnamige Publikation zeigt erstmals einen umfassenden Überblick über das facettenreiche Werk der Künstlerin, begleitet von vielschichtigen Essays von Daniel Milnes, Thangam Ravindranathan, Wong Binghao und Kathryn Yusoff, die mit den etablierten Narrativen um Sandra Mujingas Werk brechen und neue Perspektiven zu den Themen postkolonialer Theorie, Animal Studies, Gender- und queeren Perspektiven bieten.Der Preis der Nationalgalerie wird seit 2000 alle zwei Jahre an zeitgenössische Künstler\*innen unter 40 Jahren vergeben. Zu den bisherigen Preisträger\*innen zählen u. a. Cyprien Gaillard, Anne Imhof und Monica Bonvicini.AusstellungIBMSWR: I Build My Skin with Rocks, Hamburger Bahnhof - Nationalgalerie der Gegenwart, Berlin, 9. Dezember 2022 bis 1.

The work of Sandra Mujinga (b. Goma, DRC, 1989; lives and works in Berlin and Oslo) explores the body and its presence and the relationships between human and nonhuman beings. In sculptures, installations, works on video, performances, photographs, music, soundscapes, and writings, Mujinga lays out poignant critical reflections on what cultural production can achieve and on how an artist's presence is perceived and disseminated beyond her own work. On occasion of her receipt of the 2021 Preis der Nationalgalerie, the artist presents the new video installation I Build My Skin with Rocks at the Hamburger Bahnhof - Nationalgalerie der Gegenwart. At its center stands a hybrid creature-half human, half elephant-whose appearance is informed by Mujinga's pronounced interest in the worldbuilding techniques of science fiction as well as animals' survival strategies. The publication of the same title offers the first comprehensive overview of the artist's multifaceted output, rounded out by probing essays by Daniel Milnes, Thangam Ravindranathan, Wong Binghao, and Kathryn Yusoff that challenge established narratives around Sandra Mujinga's oeuvre and chart fresh perspectives in postcolonial theory, animal studies, gender and queer perspectives. The biennial Preis der Nationalgalerie has been awarded since 2000 and honors the work of contemporary artists under 40. Previous recipients have included Cyprien Gaillard, Anne Imhof, and Monica Bonvicini
