[Batalha] - Christelle Oyiri aka Crystallmess

Christelle Oyiri, also known as Crystallmess, is a French multidisciplinary artist who addresses memory, digital culture and the African diaspora through music, performance and film. Her multidisciplinary work has been presented in various institutions in France and abroad, and she will be the first artist in Tate Modern's Infinities Commission project.

French-born from Ivorian and Guadeloupean descent, Oyiri creates visual and sound archives that defy nostalgia. Her identity is marked by conflicts inherited from colonization, and the trickle-down effect it has on cultural behaviors, familial history, and the experience of a wider African diaspora. For each of her films, she composes an accompanying score, shaping the silence and voices of her characters, the architectures of her digital animation, and her hybrid use of language. Her practice spans multiple disciplines, often exploring under-the-surface stories about contemporary culture, media and identity.
At Batalha, we present a selection of her film works, which explore fragmented identities, cultural memories and emerging technologies, often through an Afrofuturist aesthetic, and are marked by an implicit critique of the dynamics of power and marginalisation.

Curated by Martha Kirszenbaum. Screening followed by talk with Christelle Oyiri and Martha Kirszenbaum.
