Atonement 1 Collage

UNKNOWN UNTOLD is a presentation about how the abstraction of the person is resulted by what the individual hasn't been told and hasn’t found out for him/herself, thus doesn't know. Resultantly, there's an obstructed and distracted notion of what makes sense and the possibilities at one's disposal. In presenting this body of work, the artist implores the audience to find utility for the concept of UNKNOWN UNTOLD in examining history better from the intrapersonal level, to investigating common microhistories about family lineages, and at a higher level, in interrogating the macrohistories that have shaped global politics and North-South relations. This exhibition is presented at the British Institute in Eastern Africa as the artist’s commentary on the role of research institutes in a post-colonial space where there is focus on unearthing the unknowns and untolds. What Forms of Erasure Of History Exist? Are there Enough Structures Around Critical Inquiry? What Obstructions, Distraction, or Abstraction are Resulted by Wrong Histories?
