The Artists Roundtable, an international forum for leading practitioners, is hosted by Tamsin Dillon, faculty member of the MA Curatorial program.

Sandra Mujinga (b. 1989, Goma, Democratic Republic of the Congo) is a multidisciplinary Congolese-Norwegian artist, musician, and DJ who explores themes of visibility, surveillance, and speculative fiction. Using a range of media, from textiles and sculpture to video and performance, her practice draws inspiration from Afrofuturism, posthumanism, and animal camouflage to create "other worlds" that challenge established narratives around identity and presence. Mujinga's work often centers on the body and its absence, with a particular focus on Blackness and its representation. She investigates the "economies of visibility," exploring how Black bodies are subjected to unwanted surveillance or are rendered invisible within dominant cultural institutions. In response, she develops alternative strategies for self-representation, preservation, and autonomy. A key element of her practice includes the notion of Speculative World-Building: Inspired by science fiction authors like Octavia Butler, Mujinga builds fantastical, "posthuman" realities where technology, humans, and animals merge. Her unsettling, hybrid creatures—often presented as ghost-like figures or hooded avatars—resist categorization and surveillance. She is also interested in examining survival tactics found in nature, like camouflage, to propose how marginalized bodies can resist observation.
