Spirit of Collection #1 (2018)

Notre Dame des Artes is an exhibition space within a historic church in the the heart of the picturesque town of Ubbergen. Together with designer Sander Zijlstra (Fuga Design Company) we broke down the white cube inside the church to bring out the characteristic architecture, depicting the crusifiction of Jesus. This resulted in an exhibition in which my work, about diasporic spirits and icons, that communicated with the architecture, black literature and texts written by myself, to question issues of representation and race relations and to truly occupy the exhibit space.
