Caroline Honorien, curatorial researcher at Mudam, presents a lecture on the work of artist Sin Wai Kin, using the concept of glitch as a critical lens to examine how the artist unsettles linear time and disrupts normative constructions of identity. Drawing on theories of glitch as a generative rupture, Caroline Honorien examines how Sin Wai Kin's practice – through science fiction, drag, Cantonese opera and popular culture – fractures the temporal logic of capitalism and proposes disjointed, indefinable temporalities to open radical speculative modes of existence. Sin Wai Kin's video The Universe is currently on view at Kinneksbond. Biography: Caroline Honorien, trained as an art historian, is an independent art critic, editor, and curator. Her research focuses mainly, but not only, on the practices of the Black diaspora and/or queer practitioners. She brings together art history, musical and countercultural perspectives to explore the aural, spatial, and temporal questions specific to diasporic studies. She has served as an editorial board member and translator for the English-language journal The Funambulist, and as a curator at Lafayette Anticipations. She is currently the A&O Shearman Fellow at MUDAM for the 2025–2026 year.
