Liberatha Alibalio is a multi-disciplinary artist. Her work is driven by research, prioritising the exploration of materials and techniques in the development of new work and often working with textiles, performance, and video. She is inspired by self-knowledge including memory and history, and how it informs the consciousness and contemporary narratives. Her work is storytelling, re-learning and tracing patterns of self, nature, spirit and materiality through art making, embodying her connection to places and traditional cultural practices as research and making.
Liberatha has participated in exhibitions and residencies nationally and internationally including East Africa Art Biennale (2019), Nafasi Art Space (Tanzania) (2021), Modzi Arts (Zambia). She was part of the second edition of Congo Biennial (DRC) (2022), nominated for the Henrike Gross Art Award (2022) and a participant in the 2022 Asiko Art School with CCA Lagos (Nigeria).
