Title : Undoing Africa at V&A.
The Victoria & Albert Museum’s (V&A) Learning Late marks Ghana's 60th year of independence with, Ghana - A Nation in Retrospective.
The Adversary was invited to stage Undoing Africa, a critical simulation developed on the research and design work of Unmaterialised's Union of African States. The simulation explores the vision and implications in introducing an Africa monetary unit titled the UAS Ore, developed to reset the economic balance of global currencies and debt.
Identified as the First Nation to achieve independence post-colonialism, it’s only right the future goal of a unified continent is on the independence day of its continental pioneer.
