THE STORY, IN BRIEF
In an ART AFRICA interview with Suzette Bell-Roberts, curator Fadzai Veronica Muchemwa discusses Second Nature | Manyonga, Zimbabwe’s presentation at the 2026 Venice Biennale. Work by Franklyn Dzingai, Gideon Gomo, Pardon Mapondera, Eva Raath and Felix Shumba connects material processes with memory and change. Muchemwa questions celebratory accounts of resilience, describing adaptation as uneven rather than automatically liberating.
