“As the title of the exhibition suggests, this temporary gathering of current works by the three artists Mbali Dhlamini (SA), Nnenna Okore (AUS/NGR), and Buhlebezwe Siwani (SA) is not centered on a specific theme. This is, rather, an opportunity to experience an open dialogue between Black women artists, some of whom live on the African continent, others in Europe or the United States. In photographs, sculptures, and images, their bodies of work offer perspectives on contemporary forms of identity and spirituality as they reflect on issues of the post-colonial. The exhibition presents around 20 works that together offer a broad spectrum of controversial and ever-expanding subjects: archetypes of the feminine, cosmic rhythms, cycles of individual lives, shifts in identity, and role-playing.”
