Swedish Arts Grants Committee awards Hanna Wildow Project Grant

Hanna Wildow has been awarded the Swedish Arts Grants Committee Project Grant for her proposal of a research project on the (im)possibilities of translation. Together with Stockholm/Cairo-based producer Sara El Miniawy and her vast network in the Arab art scene, the project aims to unfold disparate translations of hybridized languages; enduring in warped landscapes in-between Swedish and Arabic. 

Two more Swedish and three Cairo based artists will be invited to collectively explore translation when language itself performs the very border of comprehension. The group will meet for one residency in Stockholm in the fall of 2017, and one residency in Cairo in the spring of 2018.
