The Inaugural Mona Ahmed Lecture Series -  Supported by: Dayanita Singh.

This talk offers a reading of the abundant archive Dayanita Singh has made possible of Mona Ahmed. Looking closely at Dayanita’s work and Mona’s words, we learn how Mona complicates what we know of gender, motherhood, and photography. In three small acts  - Myself Mona Ahmed, Mona as mother, and Mona, the artist - the talk introduces us to Mona’s freedom dreams, wayward desires, and otherwise possibilities. From her surrender to abjection and her craft of abundance, there is something in her refusal for everyone. This talk is an invitation to her wake.
