Throughout the summer and fall seasons, the MAC invites you to take part in a series of intimate gatherings with the artists of the first cohort of the Habiter le MAC program. These exchanges will offer the public an in-depth look at their respective practices.
We invite you to reserve your place to meet artist Po B. K. Lomami on August 19. This activity will be conducted in French with an interpretation in Quebec Sign Language (LSQ).
“Po B. K. Lomami (Pauline Batamu Kasiwa Lomami) is a non-disciplinary artist-researcher, educator and cultural producer. Born into the Congolese diaspora in Belgium, they have been living in Tiohtià:ke–Mooniyang–Montreal since 2017. Lomami’s artistic practice explores rage and failure, focusing on the displacement of work, becoming, subjectivity and possible collective futures. Interested in the space between action and inaction, they interrogate people, institutions and themselves through affect, strength, absurdity, the everyday and data.
Lomami holds a bachelor’s (2011) and master’s (2014) in Management Engineering from the University of Namur, a graduate diploma in Communication Studies (2022) and a master’s in Studio Arts – Intermedia from Concordia University (2025). However, their interventionist practice has developed outside of institutional educational contexts.”
