In response to the work\, Umulkhayr has produced a pl ayful and layered commission bringing together film and performance: “OF THE __________________BY ASSOCIATION” reflecting on contemporary legaci es of housewives and the existence of oppressive hierarchies in liberatory movements.\n\nUmulkhayr Mohamed is a Welsh Somali artist\, writer\, cura tor\, researcher and educator who also produces work under the alias\, Ais ha Ajnabi\, their 'art other'. Her artistic practice involves primarily ar tist moving image\, installation and performance work that explores the te nsion present between enjoying the act of wandering between emancipatory t emporalities and a functional need to position oneself in the now. Their a rt is the place where they are able to forego pretences and hierarchies\, replacing them with solidarity and liberation\, a way for them to contribu te to doing the work of eroding the borders between beings to reveal the w holeness that lies beneath.\n\nAbout The Works:\n\n“The Women of the Rho ndda” (1973) by Esther Ronay\, Mary Kelly\, Mary Capps\, Humphrey Treve lyan\, Margaret Dickinson\, Brigid Seagrave &\; Susan Shapiro – WOMEN OF THE RHONDDA turns much-needed attention to the role played by women in the gruelling Welsh Miners' Strikes of the 20s and 30s\n\nOF THE ________ __________BY ASSOCIATION (2023) is a multi-medium devotional piece that me ditates on the contemporary legacies of working class housewives\, as well as the sisters and daughters of miners needs were sidelined in miner’s strikes\; and the toil this takes on the conditioning of being ‘house pr oud’ when going without the resources to support your family and calls y ou to consider how oppressive hierarchies are maintained even in liberator y movements.
