Manifesta purposely strives to keep its distance from what are often seen as the dominant centres of artistic production, instead seeking fresh and fertile terrain for the mapping of a new cultural topography.

Marina Naprushkina is an interdisciplinary artist. She develops networks, structures and spaces grounded in self-organisation, working in both institutional and independent contexts. In 2007, she founded the Office for Anti-Propaganda, a platform for critical examination of power relations and the violence embedded in nation-state structures. Naprushkina explores possibilities and forms of resiliency, feminist narratives and care networks, informed by intersectional and feminist critique. Working across media including painting, video and text, she combines artistic research with long-term infrastructural work.
