FORUM IMPACT 

What if empathy was harmful? What if empathy never changed power structures but, on the contrary, reinforced existing privileges? In a performance that explores the entanglements between racism and capitalism, Julian Hetzel and Ntando Cele push the limits of empathy to question how the identity, cultural baggage, and personal lives of artists have become very valuable resources in the art market. Has the trauma of some become the golden city of others?
