Artist talk with Denise Ferreira da Silva & Arjuna Neuman

Lama El Khatib and Sam Nimmrichter talk to the artists Denise Ferreira da Silva & Arjuna Neuman about their exhibition "Ancestral Clouds Ancestral Claims". Colonial violence is not in the past: It is still with and among us, inscribed in the very materiality of contemporaneity. The natural materials and slave labor forcefully extracted by European imperialism have not disappeared. They remain transformed into capital – the same capital that continues to profit from the labor of disproportionately imprisoned Black people and lands claimed by indigenous communities. (How) Can this debt ever be repaid? In their collaborative artistic work, philosopher and artist Denise Ferreira da Silva and artist-author Arjuna Neuman reflect on decolonization as, "the restoration of the total value extracted from Native Lands and expropriated from Slave Labour" (Denise Ferreira da Silva). Defying universalist norms of thought established by the European Enlightenment, da Silva and Neuman counter the linearity of history and the separation of space to interrogate the presence of colonialism now, here, with us.
