Kiluanji Kia Henda and Felix Shumba confront extraction through a poisoned river

THE STORY, IN BRIEF

In a BUALA essay translated into Portuguese by Marta Lança, Imani Jacqueline Brown interpreted Memórias do Rio Envenenado, a multimedia exhibition by Kiluanji Kia Henda and Felix Shumba in Luanda. Across the Natural History Museum and Jahmek Contemporary Art, Brown read the works through a river’s imagined memory of colonial extraction and ecological damage. Her discussion of Restless Landscape and Nocturnal Bodies connected artistic form with interdependence, inherited violence and collective resistance.
