Space explorer – an interview with Kapwani Kiwanga
Edward Behrens
APOLLO
17 APRIL 2024

If there is one mood that characterises a conversation with Kapwani Kiwanga, the Canadian artist who is representing her country at this year’s Venice Biennale, it is thoughtfulness. She speaks with a measured consideration that is all too rare in the conversation of artists. Each word is weighed, evaluated and considered before it is allowed to stand.
