Join us in Lisbon for the opening cocktail of Ilídio Candja Candja's solo show - "Resonance of Form: A Tribute to Sarah Baartman" - on March 8th, between 6 and 9 pm!
Born in 1976 in Maputo, Mozambique, Ilídio Candja Candja received his education at the National School of Visual Arts of Maputo. Candja Candja's artistic journey unfolds as a continuous evolution, marked by a nuanced exploration of individual and collective memory. His practice is distinguished by a critical reflection on the past, present, and future, with a notable focus on envisioning Afro-centric utopias that offer glimpses into speculative realms. While Candja Candja did not directly experience the colonial history he interrogates in his work, he intricately weaves it into a shared historical tapestry, influencing current and future narratives.
Address: Rua da Emenda 72, 1200-170 Lisbon
Time: 6 - 9 pm
