For Mlotshwa, van Beyeren’s painting acts as a window to the luxuries of the seventeenth-century Netherlands, and A Phoenix of the Dutch Republic interrogates history’s omission of the colonial violence and genocide that made this wealth possible. The work will go on view at LACMA alongside the van Beyeren painting in the forthcoming exhibition The World Made Wondrous: The Dutch Collector’s Cabinet and the Politics of Possession, for which Mlotshwa has also contributed recorded commentaries for the digital audio guide. Mlotshwa’s work confronts Dutch and European audiences who suffer from what she terms “colonial amnesia” by overlaying images that explicitly represent violent colonial realities onto imagery that excludes these histories. Through her practice, she highlights the voices of colonized communities whose voices have been erased in the romanticized version of history that continues to predominate in the Netherlands and across Europe. In Mlotshwa’s words, “as an artist coming from a colonized nation where colonialism utterly eradicated centuries of history, the legacies of colonialism are part of my lived experience. I use my art practice to challenge the whitewash of history by disrupting settler colonial narratives.” Filled with over 300 objects including paintings, prints and sculptures, as well as gems, shells, and taxidermy, World Made Wondrous recreates a fictive 17th-century Dutch collector’s cabinet in order to examine the political and colonial histories of European collecting practices in the 17th century. As Europeans assembled their cabinets, they ordered the world in deliberate ways, asserting judgments and hierarchies on the value of natural materials, forms of labor, forms of craftsmanship, as well as human worth, often with dire and deadly consequences. The exhibition will interrogate the underlying agendas and structures that were fundamental to these collections—which are precursors to today’s European and American museums, including LACMA. The visitor will be led through the exhibition with a digital audio guide that includes commentaries from experts across a wide variety of fields, produced expressly to expand the narratives of each object and their makers. The exhibition benefits from the important contributions of four contemporary artists: Sithabile Mlotshwa;&nbsp;Jennifer Ling Datchuk; Todd Gray;&nbsp; and Uýra Sodoma; whose works, along with their commentaries in the audio guide, provide essential context and reflection on the historical narratives woven through the exhibition. <img width="1338" height="890" width_o="1338" height_o="890" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0be249758b3f9e888e7b712b4e99ec8f75bcda13ce52e019ae24404b443262f9/Screenshot-2023-08-01-at-13.45.21.png" data-mid="186659366" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0be249758b3f9e888e7b712b4e99ec8f75bcda13ce52e019ae24404b443262f9/Screenshot-2023-08-01-at-13.45.21.png" /> Save the date for the upcoming opening of Refresh Amsterdam Biennale where artist Sithabile Mlotshwa &nbsp;will present the installation “MOKKUM” - not (Mokum) at the Refresh Amsterdam Biennale, officially opening on Friday evening, 6 October 2023. Mokkum is a critical reflection on the impact of war and conflict in the world on today's city, and in particular on its inhabitants and social structures and in this case, in the context of Amsterdam. The installation Mokkum, proposed and selected for Refresh Amsterdam is inspired by the origins of Amsterdam’s diversity which is also rooted in the suffering caused by war, religious conflict, colonialism, slavery and other crises Refresh Amsterdam, a biennial event on Amsterdam City Culture features works by twenty contemporary artists from different disciplines. With their work, the makers show how war and conflict around the world and throughout time play a role in the city of Amsterdam. The works will be on display at the Amsterdam Museum aan de Amstel and at various locations of partner institutions in the city. Participating artists include: Sithabile Mlotshwa, Nasam Abboud &amp; Yazan Maksoud &amp; Roua Jafar, Marcel van den Berg, Kristina Benjocki, Luan Buleshkaj, Dina Danish, Tina Farifteh, Ehsan Fardjadniya &amp; Raul Balai, Gert Jan Kocken, Clinton Kabena, Susanne Khalil Yusef, Ayşen Kaptanoğlu, Senka Milutinović, Vika Mitrichenko, Pieter Paul Pothoven, Ratu R.

It is a Search for Ubuntu, "what makes us human – and what connects us." I chose the Dutch “Golden Age” as a point of departure because understanding the current state of our world and finding solutions to the climate crisis, poverty, inequality, racism and dismantling of the violent imperial capitalist structures, requires understanding how we got here in the first place. This important period of Dutch history, also connected to 17th century American Colonial history, nearly 400 years of Indonesian Colonial history, is vital in understanding the aftermath of the global power struggle between England and the Dutch Republic.

The project, which includes research per city where the VOC Board members were stationed in, includes&nbsp; a traveling &nbsp;exhibition presented in Chapters. Started in Amsterdam in 2021, with the project, “Heren XVII | VOC – Kamer Amsterdam – Rethinking Coen’s Vision Part 1,” the project will travel to the different cities where each chapter will reflect on the City’s role and function. The mapping and produced works will grow as the project moves from one city to the other. <img width="1332" height="888" width_o="1332" height_o="888" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/197203e89130db6d003a6747afba028cfbd1f66280f49d21e8b0e2d4a8139d7f/Screenshot-2023-06-04-at-10.43.53.png" data-mid="188489009" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/197203e89130db6d003a6747afba028cfbd1f66280f49d21e8b0e2d4a8139d7f/Screenshot-2023-06-04-at-10.43.53.png" /> The cities where the chapters will take place include: Zeeland (Middelburg), responsible for one-fourth of the activities, Noorderkwartier or West-Friesland (Enkhuizen and Hoorn), which provided one-eighth of the activities where Maaze (Delft and Rotterdam), also had one-eighth of the activities. The research, visual mapping and travelling exhibition, broken down into chapters is as follows: Heren XVII | VOC – Kamer Amsterdam | Rethinking Coen’s Vision Part 1 Heren XVII | VOC – Kamer Zeeland |&nbsp;Rethinking – Coen’s Vision Part 2 Heren XVII | VOC – Kamer Delft |&nbsp;Rethinking Coen’s Vision part 3 Heren XVII | VOC – Kamer Rotterdam |&nbsp;Rethinking Coen’s Vision part 4 Heren XVII | VHerenOC – Kamer Enkhuizen |&nbsp;Rethinking Coen’s Vision Chamber part 6 Heren XVII | VOC – Kamer Hoorn | Rethinking Coen’s Vision Part 6&nbsp; After chapter 6, all the produced and exhibited works in the 6 chapters will be presented in the form of a solo exhibition.

It is a critical look at Merian’s status as an enslaver; her dependence on enslaved indigenous and African cultivators for her study of plants and insects in Surinam; a study she undertook by exploiting the labor of enslaved African and indigenous guides, most of whom were women. The unnamed enslaved women’s experiences of coerced sexual reproduction, abuse, and rape in Suriname and her reference to enslaved women’s reliance on infanticide and abortion to prevent their children from suffering the same fate. <img width="1364" height="992" width_o="1364" height_o="992" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2f0f97b4b4ebe20938a7dca9d1dd0d54e59ffe67819ba0b9202d490502574970/Screenshot-2023-06-04-at-14.53.18.png" data-mid="188470826" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2f0f97b4b4ebe20938a7dca9d1dd0d54e59ffe67819ba0b9202d490502574970/Screenshot-2023-06-04-at-14.53.18.png" /> It is also a critical look at Merian’s power as an actor within a slave economy and as a manager of enslaved labourers, and how in her publication, there is an absence of these women/“human possessions”, the cruelty of slavery, the unnamed indigenous woman—likely the person she calls “my Indian” taken captive by Merian and Dorothea on their voyage back to Holland in June 1701. And the fact that details of this woman’s life beyond her servile captivity on the journey to Amsterdam are unknown and were not documented by Merian. Rethinking Maria Sibylla Merian’s gaze is also a questioning of her claim of ownership of an indigenous woman who could serve as a resource for plant knowledge which in turn gave Merian status within the intellectual networks of naturalism. Not only could Merian boast of drawing specimens from life in Suriname, she returned to Amsterdam in possession of a living informant.&nbsp; The project, done in chapters includes research, dialogues, and an exhbition. Part 1 was realised in 2022 with contributions from Dr. M.L. (Mikki) Stelder and Rudy Chotoe aka di Damsko. <img width="1858" height="1432" width_o="1858" height_o="1432" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/42f07ddf32bf788018126492f04ef3229a7ce7137297a3fcedad94b4a40da3ca/Penile.png" data-mid="188476429" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/42f07ddf32bf788018126492f04ef3229a7ce7137297a3fcedad94b4a40da3ca/Penile.png" />Weapon of Choice, Sexual Violence and its link to Global Capitalism Weapon of Choice, Sexual Violence and its link to Global Capitalism, came about as a result of two documentaries I stumbled upon; “City of Joy on Netflix” and “Inside Story, – “The Silent Male Victims of Rape” by Journalist Jane Dutton, on Aljeezera. The one documentary addresses rape and the challenges of male victims that remain invisible, denied and suffer in silence, while the other goes deeper by connecting the dots between sexual violence, on women and children and its links to conflict minerals. Through my project, I attempt to take a critical look at the ecological, social, economic, and political crises of global capitalism, its link to sexual violence and the world’s culpability in this as a result of our complaisant, blind consumerism. This major long term project achored in intensive research and dialogues with experts in different discipines will culminate in a casting of 433,785 phalluses that will form the installation.

Often touted as “missing links” between man and apes, these native peoples were harassed and demeaned. Their public display was arranged with the enthusiastic support of the most elite members of the scientific community, and it was promoted uncritically by America’s leading newspapers. This project explores the heartbreaking story of what happened and will bring to light how African-American ministers and other people of faith tried to push back. The project also seeks to reveal how some people today are still drawing on Social Darwinism in order to dehumanize others. The project also explores the tragic story of eugenics in America, the effort to breed human beings based on Darwinian principles.

Depicted are people from the colonies paying tribute to a white youthful woman symbolizing the Netherlands. An increasing number of people are finding this depiction of colonialism inappropriate for national celebrations. Should the carriage continue to be used on Prinsjesdag and during Orange weddings and inaugurations? Does the carriage deserve to be adapted, or does it belong in a museum? The exhibition highlights diverse perspectives on this controversial driving heritage. <img width="1816" height="1188" width_o="1816" height_o="1188" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d3047bcb2890effbb0d90d70cd8046f647172982dd1863af1ac394061e3ff092/Screenshot-2023-01-13-at-15.57.10.png" data-mid="188488844" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d3047bcb2890effbb0d90d70cd8046f647172982dd1863af1ac394061e3ff092/Screenshot-2023-01-13-at-15.57.10.png" /> Participating artists included: Sithabile Mlotshwa,&nbsp;AiRich, Arahmaiani, Berend Strik, Bernard Akoi-Jackson, Brian Elstak, Danielle Hoogendoorn, Erwin Olaf, Iswanto Hartono, Naomie Pieter, Nelson Carrilho, Painted Series, Raul Balai, Sarah van Sonsbeeck, Serana Angelista and Sharelly&nbsp; Emanuelson.

Part&nbsp; 2Collected Stories &amp; The Making of Historical TilesThis project involves collecting stories, interviews, books, and images through workshops with schools across the Netherlands and internationally, aimed at creating the Historical Tiles Project. Initiated during my participation in the LW2018 Cultural Capital project "Iepen Mienskip," and supported by the Rotary Clubs Leeuwarden, the collected materials will culminate in a large-scale installation and videos. The process, which includes extensive reading and engaging with diverse communities, has been inspiring, emotional, and humbling. Additionally, a blog will document these experiences. <img width="1394" height="1804" width_o="1394" height_o="1804" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0d13c1f2955976761d575797b9937c5a33ee9abe13428a801f1e1f85e2d7a771/Screenshot-2023-08-03-at-00.31.17.png" data-mid="188490646" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0d13c1f2955976761d575797b9937c5a33ee9abe13428a801f1e1f85e2d7a771/Screenshot-2023-08-03-at-00.31.17.png" /> The International Arm of the Dutch Republic part 1 – Reflections on the Dutch East India CompanyThe project and installation,“The International Arm of the Dutch Republic’ was inspired by the dialogues I had with different Dutch people and scholars who when I asked about the VOC and the horrible atrocities linked to it, responded by saying that this was a little black dot in their history.&nbsp; Having been met with collective silence and critic of focusing on something that happened in the past as well as being told that this history has nothing to do with now, I decided to do indepth research by critically looking at the practices of the East India and West companies, that and the imapct their practices have had and continue to have in shaping and affecting our world today.&nbsp; The research will result in the making of a large scale installation of hands that retraces the scale of the voyages and impact of the&nbsp;VOC and WIC chartered companies.&nbsp; <img width="1368" height="1378" width_o="1368" height_o="1378" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4947a173e94ef08dbb0158b75a703bf66d5673eae8f3d35feac8536bb8ceefee/Screenshot-2023-06-04-at-10.35.39.png" data-mid="188493115" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4947a173e94ef08dbb0158b75a703bf66d5673eae8f3d35feac8536bb8ceefee/Screenshot-2023-06-04-at-10.35.39.png" /> Inter caetera – Rethinking Cartography and Papal bulls, from the Chapter – &nbsp;The Spanish Museum of Colonialism The project Inter caetera – Rethinking Cartography and Papal bulls is a critical reflection on Spanish colonization of the Americas. This Chapter, takes a closer look at the Primitive state of Christopher Columbus, so called “discoverer” of the Americas, his exploitation of Indigenous people who were brutally subjugated soon after Columbus arrived in the New World, the Slavery and terror he brought to the Americas. In a journal entry about his first interactions with the Native people of the Bahamas in 1492, he wrote: “They willingly traded everything they owned … They were well-built, with good bodies and handsome features …They do not bear arms, and do not know them, for I showed them a sword, they took it by the edge and cut themselves out of ignorance. They have no iron … They would make fine servants … With fifty men we could subjugate them all and make them do whatever we want.” Later voyages to the Americas from Spain, Portugal, England, and other European countries would lead to the colonization of the Americas, the genocide of Indigenous peoples, and the devastation of much of their civilizations. In many ways, Christopher Columbus’ voyage can be seen as the start of the early-modern era of slavery, which would include both Indigenous peoples in the Americas and people forcibly taken from Africa.The exchange of diseases, vegetation, and animal life — previously separated by the ocean and by many thousands of years — also began with Columbus’ voyages and transformed the civilizations of the separate hemispheres irrevocably. This process is now known as the Columbian Exchange. The introduction of European diseases to the Americas was especially noteworthy since they were far more virulent than the diseases transmitted from the Americas to Europe. Diseases like smallpox and measles spread quickly throughout the Americas, wiping out many Indigenous people over the next couple of centuries. This depopulation of the North and South American continents left the surviving Indigenous people unable to effectively defend themselves from the ruthless exploitation they would suffer at the hands of the European colonizers for centuries. The project&nbsp;Inter caetera – Rethinking Cartography and Papal bulls, part of the Spanish Museum of Colonialism,&nbsp;is an important starting point in retracing and visually mapping the&nbsp;Spanish Museum of Colonialism.&nbsp; Below is a lecture that inspired a need to dig deeper into this history, where&nbsp;PCI Executive Director Asher Miller speaks with Sherri Mitchell (Weh'na Ha'mu Kwasset) on the long history of colonization and conquest -- upon which our legal, religious, and educational structures continue to be based -- and how the coronavirus pandemic and the growing recognition of white privilege present a unique opportunity to decolonize our society, minds, and hearts. Decolonization: Digging deeper to get at the roots of systemic injustice and unsustainability. The intensive research will culminate in major body of work that maps Spanish colonialism.&nbsp; <img width="1264" height="1769" width_o="1264" height_o="1769" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a835d481d50773ad5a3e232f4ff7dec6581de14caa65ad20803ca81ac9c61c74/My-body.png" data-mid="188492954" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a835d481d50773ad5a3e232f4ff7dec6581de14caa65ad20803ca81ac9c61c74/My-body.png" />Explorers, Empire builders and Delicate flowers Next https://sithabileartprojects.com/Sithabile-in-the-News Fri, 09 Jun 2023 08:45:26 +0000 sithabileartprojects https://sithabileartprojects.com/Sithabile-in-the-News Sithabile Mlotshwa in the News Below is a selection of publications in the form of books, newspaper articles, online digital communication and magazines.

https://sithabileartprojects.com/Golden-Coach-Exhibition Sun, 25 Jun 2023 20:20:12 +0000 sithabileartprojects https://sithabileartprojects.com/Golden-Coach-Exhibition The Golden Coach - Gouden Koets Exhibition&nbsp; The installation “A truly Dutch Creation, the Citizen as Investor and Stakeholder” reflects on the Golden Coach as a symbol of Dutch Glory and the Colonial Empire. The starting point is the positioning of white women as a symbol of innocence and greatness as opposed to the actual role they, too, have played and continue to play in our shared history. The allegorical female figures on the coach as well as in paintings in the collection of the Amsterdam Museum and other museums, form the the installation’s core.The work is inspired by the public apology of King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima after their vacation in Greece during the pandemic last year. Mlotshwa hopes the royals will have a role in further opening the curtain that still shrouds the history of colonialism and slavery. Only in this way can awareness grow in (Dutch) society regarding the many threads which connect the past and present, both with each other and with places all over the world.

Artist plays role in Colonial Reckoning The Golden Coach Exhibition&nbsp; Amsterdam Museum King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands, being shown the installation of Artist Sithabile Mlotshwa by Amsterdam Museum’s Artistic Director Margriet Schavemaker, during the official opening of the historical exhibition, the “Golden Coach” in June 2021. Sithabile Mlotshwa’s installation “A Truly Dutch Creation – the Citizen as Investor and Stakeholder” depicts King Willem-Alexander, Queen Maxima and the royal family at the core of the making of Empire and the&nbsp;colonial story. <img width="1808" height="1154" width_o="1808" height_o="1154" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c898f2cbfbe4fc2969a330408fc9fe932d5b866dd2280f5e23b27a4d1030d166/Screenshot-2023-01-13-at-15.57.27.png" data-mid="183513301" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c898f2cbfbe4fc2969a330408fc9fe932d5b866dd2280f5e23b27a4d1030d166/Screenshot-2023-01-13-at-15.57.27.png" />The Netherlands has been reckoning with its history as a 17th-century colonial superpower, where Dutch merchants made vast fortunes from enslaved peoples. The controversial royal family’s Golden Carriage, bears a painting that critics say glorifies the Netherlands’ colonial past, including its role in the global slave trade. The imagery on the Golden Carriage especially the panel called Tribute to the Colonies, shows half-naked enslaved Africans and Indonesian people offering their riches to the royal family. <img width="2141" height="1514" width_o="2141" height_o="1514" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/377bf0394e2976dc62bebc6563f83ddc13549b6785b7f792a8a0240138d9c5b8/Colonial-Netherlands-.png" data-mid="183513214" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/377bf0394e2976dc62bebc6563f83ddc13549b6785b7f792a8a0240138d9c5b8/Colonial-Netherlands-.png" />Many people were enslaved under Dutch&nbsp;colonial rule in the Indian Ocean, the Indonesian archipelago, South Africa, Brazil, Guyana and territories in the Caribbean.<img width="2048" height="1200" width_o="2048" height_o="1200" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/39c9b66cba6e68e2beb5a860f534c39776929da60b1c27e9411514b1fd327491/foundations-of-civilisation--2-copy.png" data-mid="183513473" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/39c9b66cba6e68e2beb5a860f534c39776929da60b1c27e9411514b1fd327491/foundations-of-civilisation--2-copy.png" />“Our history has many things to be proud of, but it also offers lessons in recognising mistakes and avoiding them in the future,” the king said in his video message. “We cannot rewrite the past. But we can try to come to terms with it together.” <img width="2324" height="1496" width_o="2324" height_o="1496" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/14814a065a992924824fcec28948a3fb21332a9f6303bc8ab9647c2ac664506f/Screenshot-2023-06-04-at-11.24.23.png" data-mid="183513408" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/14814a065a992924824fcec28948a3fb21332a9f6303bc8ab9647c2ac664506f/Screenshot-2023-06-04-at-11.24.23.png" />A few months later after the above statement, King Willem-Alexander commissioned independent research into the role of the House of Orange-Nassau in Dutch colonial history. The research will take three years to complete and will cover the period from the late 16th century to the “post”colonial present. The research will be carried out at Leiden University.The reason Sithabile says she made this installation, was with the hope that the royals would have a role in further opening the curtain that still shrouds the history of colonialism and slavery in the Netherlands. <img width="1922" height="1524" width_o="1922" height_o="1524" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7117f1313a4abe0c87bcd01883fc25cf183a7fd331f9eb2a6334ee4851844b64/Screenshot-2023-01-14-at-09.46.12.png" data-mid="183513449" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7117f1313a4abe0c87bcd01883fc25cf183a7fd331f9eb2a6334ee4851844b64/Screenshot-2023-01-14-at-09.46.12.png" /> As only in this way, can awareness grow in (Dutch) society regarding the many threads which connect the past and present, both with each other and with places all over the world. The recent decision made by King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands to commission independent research into the role of the Royal family “Orange-Nassau family” in colonial history, makes Sithabile Mlotshwa feel very proud. As an artist who made an artwork with the aim for the Royal family to take this very step, she adds, “it makes me feel that I have played a very important role in this historical moment”. <img width="1950" height="1296" width_o="1950" height_o="1296" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b73f467c4881fa754b59c5fb577cd50bd2d57ac550017ca569f3f6b6c2342c49/Screenshot-2023-01-13-at-17.49.51.png" data-mid="183364203" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b73f467c4881fa754b59c5fb577cd50bd2d57ac550017ca569f3f6b6c2342c49/Screenshot-2023-01-13-at-17.49.51.png" />“In-depth knowledge of the past is essential to be able to understand historical facts and developments and to face their impact on people and communities as clearly and honestly as possible,” said King Willem-Alexander about the study into his family history. “I think it is important that this knowledge also becomes available with regard to the role of the House of Oranje-Nassau in colonial history. This should be done on the basis of thorough, critical and independent research, which I have commissioned.” https://www.universiteitleiden.nl/en/news/2022/12/independent-research-into-house-of-orange-nassau-and-dutch-colonial-history <img width="2362" height="3543" width_o="2362" height_o="3543" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c53876532ea1e8232ae615981474bfe91ed270078c782d7c4c351e078eed74e0/06-copy.jpg" data-mid="183513541" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c53876532ea1e8232ae615981474bfe91ed270078c782d7c4c351e078eed74e0/06-copy.jpg" /> <img width="1816" height="1188" width_o="1816" height_o="1188" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d3047bcb2890effbb0d90d70cd8046f647172982dd1863af1ac394061e3ff092/Screenshot-2023-01-13-at-15.57.10.png" data-mid="183364065" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d3047bcb2890effbb0d90d70cd8046f647172982dd1863af1ac394061e3ff092/Screenshot-2023-01-13-at-15.57.10.png" /> Following the Golden Coach “Gouden Koets” Exhibition which the King officially opened on the 17th of June 2021 lasting till the end of February 2022, a month prior to the end of the exhibition, King Willem-Alexander made a public announcement stating that he would not use the Golden Carriage for the time being and that this Royal Carriage, depicting the celebration of Colonialism and Conquest, would be used again when the Netherlands is ready for it, the King said. <img width="2962" height="1846" width_o="2962" height_o="1846" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7077eaa1c4597a1d8a631da4d476ff55839cfee32ad7a6200f5f858a93cc6d0d/Screenshot-2023-06-04-at-16.12.50.png" data-mid="183512447" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7077eaa1c4597a1d8a631da4d476ff55839cfee32ad7a6200f5f858a93cc6d0d/Screenshot-2023-06-04-at-16.12.50.png" /> The carriage and its symbolism have already sparked outcry, particularly within the Dutch migrant groups with ties to the former colonies, for many years. This has intensified in the past decade, including calls by Jeffry Pondaag of the Dutch-based Committee of Dutch Debts of Honor KUKB to ban the coach altogether. In the past two years, this discussion was spurred further by the global Black Lives Matter movements. Many people were enslaved under Dutch colonial rule in the Indian Ocean, the Indonesian archipelago, South Africa, Brazil, Guyana and territories in the Caribbean. <img width="1990" height="1572" width_o="1990" height_o="1572" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ec3acdb9942a4138043aabb8bff8da3003eb3557df813cd4c5d2674144c34fa1/Screenshot-2023-01-14-at-05.05.15.png" data-mid="183513208" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ec3acdb9942a4138043aabb8bff8da3003eb3557df813cd4c5d2674144c34fa1/Screenshot-2023-01-14-at-05.05.15.png" /> “Our history has many things to be proud of, but it also offers lessons in recognising mistakes and avoiding them in the future,” the king said in his video message. “We cannot rewrite the past. But we can try to come to terms with it together. That applies to the colonial past as well.” The king said simply banning objects and symbols from history or judging them by today’s norms, is not the solution. “We need a concerted effort that goes deeper and lasts longer, an effort that unites us rather than divides us,” he said. “All citizens of this country should be able to feel that they are equal and have fair opportunities. Everyone should be able to feel part of what has been built up in our country and be proud of it,” he said. “As long as there are people living in the Netherlands who feel the pain of discrimination on a daily basis, the past will still cast its shadow over our time, and it will not yet be over.” the king said. “The golden coach will only be able to drive again when the Netherlands is ready for it, and that is not yet the case.” <img width="3543" height="2362" width_o="3543" height_o="2362" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5872b48a3241e3cd0c5c4d15a4f827c09b4c77d4706a1197e6b378be16194509/31.jpg" data-mid="183512460" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/5872b48a3241e3cd0c5c4d15a4f827c09b4c77d4706a1197e6b378be16194509/31.jpg" /> The recent decision made by King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands to commission independent research into the role of the Royal family “Orange-Nassau family” in colonial history, makes Sithabile Mlotshwa feel very proud.

For the first time, I feel like a load of weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I began working on this major research project in 2018, but the Dutch public, media and institutional response to my work was a collective silence. This was followed by a lot of critic, where many people did not understand why I was focusing on a history that they felt had nothing to do with me. I lost a lot of white friends who suddenly did not understand me and why I was doing this project. Many of them felt that I had become very angry, that I had changed and had become a racist. I can’t express how hard it is to be socially and institutionally negated because the subject matter you address is unwelcome and not palatable for the public. <img width="1990" height="1572" width_o="1990" height_o="1572" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ec3acdb9942a4138043aabb8bff8da3003eb3557df813cd4c5d2674144c34fa1/Screenshot-2023-01-14-at-05.05.15.png" data-mid="183513208" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ec3acdb9942a4138043aabb8bff8da3003eb3557df813cd4c5d2674144c34fa1/Screenshot-2023-01-14-at-05.05.15.png" />After four years of feeling like I was talking to the wind, due to the Dutch society’s “Collective Historical Amnesia”, the fact that this is happening, the fact that Dutch banks, have now apologised for slavery, the fact that the Mayor of Amsterdam also apologised for Slavery, https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-57680209 the fact that the King has commissioned an investigation into the role of his family in colonial history and the fact that my work archived its aim, which was for the royal family to take this position, confirms the relevance and importance of my research. https://sithabileinfryslan.com/ And this fact, makes me very, very proud”. She ended by acknowledging Curator Annemarie de Wildt, who invited her to take part in this historical exhibition.

&nbsp;︎︎ Research Artistic research – “In Search of Ubuntu &nbsp;– &nbsp;Legacies of Imperial projects , re-Remembering &amp; re-Thinking “Empire” in relation to the West and the Rest” – 2021 – 2040 “In Search of Ubuntu” – &nbsp;a search for what makes us human and what connects us, is an investigative research based project, approached through the artistic lens, that retraces the &nbsp;causes of our current paradigm from the perspective of our interconnected history, &nbsp;with its inception anchored in the Dutch Golden Age. <img width="2482" height="1609" width_o="2482" height_o="1609" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ab528325807667c702bfeb385ffdc4c1ec5277843debbd4d60bdd6c1cfc50ff3/Foundations-of-civilization.png" data-mid="186830874" border="0"

Ubuntu, Dutch Golden Age as my international response to the theme; Iepen Mienskip, “Open Community” of the 2018 European Cultural Capital Project in Leeuwarden, whose aim was to solve the controversial issues facing the Western World, among them, Migration, Inequality, Racism, and Climate Challenges. When this project ended, I realised that I had barely scratched the surface. It is with this reason that in 2021, I started working on an in-depth artistic research project entitled: In Search of Ubuntu, Legacies of Imperial projects, re-Remembering and re-Thinking Empire in relation to the West and the Rest. <img width="1618" height="1228" width_o="1618" height_o="1228" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cd16c3eb940d61efb3668e7867a7fb71e2088463781046a7f9c681256748002c/Screenshot-2023-01-13-at-15.58.45.png" data-mid="186831571" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cd16c3eb940d61efb3668e7867a7fb71e2088463781046a7f9c681256748002c/Screenshot-2023-01-13-at-15.58.45.png" /> The focus of this in-depth artistic research is on&nbsp;Western colonialism, a political-economic phenomenon whereby various European nations explored, conquered, settled, and exploited large areas of the world. The age of modern colonialism began about 1500, following the European discoveries of a sea route around Africa’s southern coast (1488) and of America (1492). While this in-depth artistic research is anchored in the Dutch Empire, its core is to retrace the foundations of this history, to critically question how it still impacts our modern world &nbsp;and to connect the dots of Colonial Conquests and &nbsp;European empires through trade. <img width="1818" height="1540" width_o="1818" height_o="1540" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/61e5bca5c07f2187feb7cbbd46a69ecc8d63f5b03f6b296a87fe1a483ba10870/A-sickness-of-the-mind-.png" data-mid="186831193" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/61e5bca5c07f2187feb7cbbd46a69ecc8d63f5b03f6b296a87fe1a483ba10870/A-sickness-of-the-mind-.png" /> It is a Search for Ubuntu, "what makes us human – and what connects us." I chose the Dutch Golden Age as a point of departure because understanding the current state of our world and finding solutions to the climate crisis, poverty, inequality, racism and dismantling of the violent imperial capitalist structures, requires understanding how we got here in the first place. This important period of Dutch history, also connected to 17th century American Colonial history, nearly 400 years of Indonesian Colonial history, is vital in understanding the aftermath of the global power struggle between England and the Dutch Republic. <img width="1884" height="1631" width_o="1884" height_o="1631" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/87ba36d314f0240bd9b577f61cd052adbc721443e2a87299765bfc4582ab0648/Empire-Builder-.png" data-mid="186831305" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/87ba36d314f0240bd9b577f61cd052adbc721443e2a87299765bfc4582ab0648/Empire-Builder-.png" /> <img width="1856" height="1580" width_o="1856" height_o="1580" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b6f4c0ea2c2ddf2cfbe8e34d9868be36c9bcdca55b2c16790ae96847ca5dd0f3/Empire-builder-1-.png" data-mid="186830752" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b6f4c0ea2c2ddf2cfbe8e34d9868be36c9bcdca55b2c16790ae96847ca5dd0f3/Empire-builder-1-.png" /> Research and Visual Mapping Projects and Chapters include:&nbsp; The European Museum of Colonialism Chapters The Dutch Museum of ColonialismThe British Museum of ColonialismThe French Museum of ColonialismThe Portuguese Museum of Colonialism&nbsp;The Spanish Museum of ColonialismThe Belgian Museum of ColonialismThe Swedish Museum of ColonialismThe Danish Museum of ColonialismThe Swiss Museum of Colonial complicityThe Scotish Museum of ColonialismFounding fathers of Trans-Atlantic Slave TradeInter caetera, Cartography and Papal bulls aColonial Complicity, Luxembourgers and the Belgian Congo&nbsp;WesternisationEuropean Museum of RacismEast India and West CompaniesHistorical tilesWeapon of Choice The Visual Maps and Chapters per country and subject are an introduction into bodies of work presented in the form of a series.&nbsp; <img width="2346" height="1454" width_o="2346" height_o="1454" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0fa070dfc436ffc32d635c07dd995b3471130070404e7eadc4642e79d205f394/Screenshot-2023-01-13-at-15.16.22.png" data-mid="186831481" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0fa070dfc436ffc32d635c07dd995b3471130070404e7eadc4642e79d205f394/Screenshot-2023-01-13-at-15.16.22.png" /> These works critically reflect on each country’s Colonial history and its ongoing living legacies in present day Colonialism and Capitalism. <img width="1920" height="1480" width_o="1920" height_o="1480" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4137c90c492c90a940df213fc8c100358be60a14f0b11c5a8d8ef3646cc583c4/Screenshot-2023-01-14-at-14.07.45.png" data-mid="186831424" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4137c90c492c90a940df213fc8c100358be60a14f0b11c5a8d8ef3646cc583c4/Screenshot-2023-01-14-at-14.07.45.png" /> It is a Search for Ubuntu, "what makes us human – and what connects us." “Because understanding the current state of our world and finding solutions to the climate crisis, poverty, inequality, racism and dismantling of the violent imperial capitalist structures, requires understanding how we got here in the first place.”&nbsp; <img width="2177" height="1852" width_o="2177" height_o="1852" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c1a52c676865b90e824af9619a7995498568b34379a5f9b1955f1253b36ad7b4/insatiable.png" data-mid="186830890" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c1a52c676865b90e824af9619a7995498568b34379a5f9b1955f1253b36ad7b4/insatiable.png" /> Next&nbsp; https://sithabileartprojects.com/Projects Tue, 27 Jun 2023 00:27:36 +0000 sithabileartprojects https://sithabileartprojects.com/Projects Projects The artworks below are projects that represent several series of bodies of works.
