Kapwani Kiwanga. Changing States

  • 30/04/2026 - 13/09/2026
  • Curatorship: Martina Millà, Head of Exhibitions at the Fundació Joan Miró.

Presenting three newly produced works, the Changing States exhibition begins with pieces by Kiwanga that employ raw materials and ends with her projects reflecting on geological temporalities, as part of a journey that offers an insight into some of the most prominent themes of her research.

Changing States is accompanied by a catalogue featuring critical contributions from Kathryn Yusoff, Christine Checinska and Mabel O. Wilson, as well as a conversation between Kiwanga and the show’s curator, Martina Millà. The catalogue also includes descriptive texts by Kathleen Ritter. This trilingual publication will be available soon.

Kapwani Kiwanga’s exhibition will be accompanied by a mediation programme in exhibition spaces and school curated by Maguette Dieng, as well as a season of conversations, performances and poetry with River Claure, Mafe Moscoso, Kathryn Yusoff, Kapwani Kiwanga, Samia Henni, Lydia Ourahmane, Dust Pavilion (Olga Subirós, Llorenç Benet and Joana Teixidor), Imani Jacqueline Brown and Paulo
Tavares.

The lead supporters of the Joan Miró Prize are the Stavros Niarchos Foundation and CUPRA.

The Changing States exhibition has been made possible through the collaboration of Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary (TBA21).
