Neema Githere is a writer, artist, and guerrilla theorist. Neema’s curatorial and research practice examines the digital diaspora and networked repair through cyber-cartography, with a focus on Afropresentism – an inquiry into how descendents of exile can invoke somatic attunement amidst systematised algorithmic displacement. Her work routes decanonising digital methodologies, collective archiving, and reindigenisation through participatory and socially engaged formats. Having dreamt themselves into the world via the internet from an early age, Neema’s work prototypes relationality-as-art through experiments that span curation, community organizing, social design, travel, and image-making. Neema has been building a research-based embodiment practice since 2016; beginning with a project entitled #digitaldiaspora – inspired by Anna Everett’s Digital Diaspora: A Race for Cyberspace (SUNY Press, 2009) – which traveled to over 20 countries exploring how Afrodiasporic creatives were articulating new identities on- and offline.
