Double vision: the anteater and the signs of all times by Prof Pippa Skotnes and Prof Isabel Hofmeyr

In Conversation with Professor Pippa Skotnes and Professor Isabel Hofmeyr.

The Origins Centre is delighted to welcome Pippa Skotnes and Isabel Hofmeyr to lead conversations focussing on the Double Vision exhibit.

The Bleek and Lloyd archive, storytelling and the formation of stories and narratives. Within these conversations we welcome interactions and engagements with the audience. Through this event, we also launch the revamped ‘Double Vision’ exhibit at Origins, created by Pippa Skotnes and Malcolm Payne. The exhibit received new life thanks to the Digital Fabric and 24/7 Architects teams, with support from the Wits Science Faculty and an exciting artwork donation by Pippa Skotnes.

Professor Pippa Skotnes is a Professor Emeritus at the University of Cape Town (UCT). She is an artist, curator, scholar, and former director of the Centre for Curating the Archive, at Michaelis School of Fine Art at the University of Cape Town. Isabel Hofmeyr is Professor Emeritus at the University of the Witwatersrand currently based at WISER, and was Global Distinguished Professor at New York University from 2013 to 2022.
