| Summary: | Research-based, thematically highly topical, and future-oriented -- these terms can be used to describe the oeuvre of Kapwani Kiwanga (born 1978). She knows how to entice visually and touch the viewer with the thematic content of her work. She uses the effective power of colors, light, and materials charged with content to narrate global (hi-)stories from new perspectives. Through the historical, social, and political dimension of her works, she refines our sense for "hidden" social mechanisms, structural injustices, as well as power asymmetries. In a poetic way, Kapwani Kiwanga surveys and expands our social horizons. |
