Heba Y. Amin at International Presentations and Exhibitions (22/04/2017)
As part of Transmediale—a Berlin-based festival and year-round project that draws out new connections between art, culture, and technology—Heba Y. Amin participated in Mediterranean Tomorrows on February 5, 2017. The panel uses the Mediterranean region as its starting point and challenges prevailing scenarios designed for its future, asking questions such as, "Which futures can be [re]imagined for a region affected by ongoing financial crisis, mass-movement of the population, and climate change?", "Can speculative approaches to these future scenarios assist in understanding the formation of new political and environmental ecologies?" Transmediale continued until March 5.

Amin also participated in the group exhibition Deep Memory which investigates the dilemma between the representation of African culture in the European public spheres and the representation of Europe on the African continent, curated by Joanna Sandell and Breeze Yoko. Featuring artists from different countries, including Malala Andrialavidrazana, Buntu Fihla and Mats Hjelm, the exhibition can be visited at Kalmar Konstmuseum in Sweden until August 27.
