Tea with Nefertiti examines how artworks can become tools through which images and cultures are created. It considers the artwork from three distinct perspectives: the artist’s perspective, within the museum or exhibition context, and lastly within the public sphere and mass media. Tea with Nefertiti illustrates how an artwork acquires a different meaning and agency when viewed through these different angles, and how it shapes the writing of narratives, through which images of cultures are constructed.
