Storytelling tour with Yara Sheikh
Storytelling tour with Yara Sheikh
at –
Welcome to join a storytelling tour in Bouchra Khalili’s exhibition “How to Call a Ghost” at Malmö Konsthall, led by Yara Sheikh from the cultural association Hand i Hand kulturförening. The tour lasts approximately 45 minutes and replaces the public guided tour.
The tour is based on a personal and generational reflection on Bouchra Khalili’s artistic practice. Through a younger generational perspective, it explores how experiences of migration in Malmö can be reflected in Khalili’s work, and how we in the present are creating the archives of the future through our stories, lives, and artistic expressions. The tour focuses on art, resilience, and immigrant life, as well as how we can understand and decode the meanings formed between history, the present, and the future.
Bouchra Khalili is a French-Moroccan artist based in Vienna. Since the early 2000s, she has worked across various mediums, particularly film and video. In her work, she explores questions related to belonging, community, and democracy.

In collaboration with ABF Malmö. Part of the project Halaqa, funded with support from Region Skåne.
