bitforms gallery a solo exhibition of work by Mimi Ọnụọha, a Nigerian-American artist and researcher whose work highlights the historical relationships and power dynamics behind data collection.

These Networks In Our Skin depicts four women who work to rewire the cables that carry the information that powers the world. The short film draws from traditional Igbo cosmology to offer a dreamlike visual lexicon of what it might mean to recreate the Internet, starting from the values infused in the cables that make it up. Surreal, familiar, and disquieting all at once, the film lives in a space between things that could happen and things that do.
