Digital platform still from YaYaYa / The Clitoris Museum, conceived curatorial project, 2021.
YaYaYa / The Clitoris Museum was conceived in 2021 as a digital curatorial project and open-call prototype responding to female genital mutilation through contemporary art, lens-based media, digital circulation and activist visibility.
The project proposed an online exhibition, an international open call, a fundraising auction structure and the speculative foundation of The Clitoris Museum as a counter-institutional platform concerned with bodily autonomy, pleasure, gendered violence and the politics of representation.
Although the project was not realized in its original public form, it remains a significant archival point within Analize Nicolini’s research. It anticipates later concerns in her practice around authorship, legitimacy, corporeal visibility, institutional framing and the right to narrate one’s own body and history.
Presented here as a conceived and unrealized curatorial project, YaYaYa / The Clitoris Museum is part of a broader investigation into how contemporary art can confront regimes of silence, symbolic violence and institutional exclusion.
