Congratulations to our Photosynthesis artists-in-residence at Srihatta, Himali Singh Soin & David Soin Tappeser, and Annalee Davis, on being invited to participate in the 61st Venice Art Biennale, titled In Minor Keys, taking place from 9 May to 22 November 2026.
We are also delighted that our Photosynthesis partner institution, Denniston Hill, has also been invited to take part in this edition of the Biennale.
Curated by Koyo Kouoh, our past DAS collaborator, who was instrumental in RAW Material Company’s fourth edition of its biannual symposium programme, Condition Report 4: Stepping Out of Line; Art Collectives and Translocal Parallelism, which explored the artistic landscape in Africa and beyond during DAS 2020, bringing together art collectives from across regions and fostering a dialogue between Bangladeshi and Global South collectives.
Building on this commitment to transnational dialogue and collective exchange, In Minor Keys brings together 111 invited participants — including individual artists, collaborative duos, collectives, and artist-led organisations from across diverse geographies and regions. The participants were chosen with careful attention to resonance, affinity, and the potential convergences between practices, even when separated by great distances.
