Call for Papers at Tate: Mother Lines

Tate Papers is seeking contributions for a special issue exploring transgenerational connections and ancestral knowledge in art. Submissions may explore themes of matrilineage, rematriation and interconnected transnational histories. Reflecting the museum’s wider programme, the issue will focus on artists who are centring modes of embodied and ancestral knowledge primarily passed on through women.

Artists often turn to these connections as a way of resisting cultural, spiritual and ecological erasure and to restore relationships with our environment or histories. Please see https://www.tate.org.uk/research/tate-papers/calls-for-papers for more details and send submissions to tatepapers@tate.org.uk, including your full name and affiliation, as well as those of any co-authors or contributors.
