Ruben Cabenda

Surinam

$5,000

Ruben Cabenda is an artist focused on slavery and identity. During his residency, he developed several animation pieces that explore language to abstractly and figuratively depict the history of slavery and its legacy. His animations show how the past is still interwoven with the present, and decolonization is still an ongoing process. Through his animation, viewers can see how descendants of the slaves, their identities, are snatched and deformed, bearing the traces of colonialism.
