episode Artists Alima Tokmergenova and Katya Buchatska artwork

Artists Alima Tokmergenova and Katya Buchatska

This episode features three voices from Central Asia and Ukraine whose practices center on memory, language, and the politics of knowledge. Alima Tokmergenova works through research, education, and collective practice in Bishkek, developing new ways to speak about local art and building spaces where people can learn, read, and create together. Katya Buchatska turns to sculpture, installation, and performance to navigate life during a full-scale war, using art as a form of witnessing, resilience, and connection. Their stories intersect around the need to invent new languages for shared histories, and to imagine futures that resist erasure and isolation.

Artists Dariya Temirkhan and Intizor Otaniyozova

This conversation follows two artists from Central Asia. Dariya Temirkhan traces her path from academic painting to collage, reflects on colonial memory in Kazakhstan, and builds a digital alter ego that speaks to a new Qazaq-speaking generation. Intizor Otaniyozova examines statelessness, borders, and the limits of the nation-state through film and writing, questioning who gets to belong in the region. Together, their stories open a broader look at decolonization, shifting identities, and the search for more honest ways of understanding the past and imagining what comes next.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
