Stefanie Jason

Stefanie Jason works at the intersection of research, curating, and archiving. Currently an Art History PhD student at Rutgers University, Stefanie’s work is focused on memory and desire in contemporary African diasporic art. With an MA in Curatorial Practice from Wits University, Stefanie’s thesis centres the absence of pioneering photojournalist Mabel Cetu from South Africa’s official records, which she produced alongside a zine featuring a collection of responses to Cetu’s memory. Stefanie is a 2022 ArtTable Fellow working with Amant Foundation on the forthcoming exhibition Jayne Cortez: A Poet’s Guide to the World, and has written for publications such as Contemporary And, Africa South Art Initiative (ASAI), and ARTS.BLACK.
