Thenjiwe Niki Nkosi was born in New York and has lived in Harare and Johannesburg since the early 1990s. She is a painter, video artist and filmmaker who divides her time between studio work and navigating the field of art as social practice. Her work investigates power and its political, social and architectural structures. Implicit in her examination of these structures is an interrogation of the invisible forces that create them, and an imagining of alternatives (http://thenjiwenkosi.com/).

In this presentation, she will introduce and discuss a screening of Border Farm, a multimedia project on the South African/Zimbabwean border that she produced in collaboration with Zimbabwean migrant farm workers (http://borderfarm.blogspot.ca/).
