Este quarto parece uma República! [This Bedroom Looks Like a Republic!] marks the first museum exhibition of interdisciplinary artist Sandra Poulson (Angolan, b. 1995). Featuring an installation of new assemblage works, the exhibition includes sculptures made from furniture and garments, reflecting on the abstraction of nation-building within the domestic sphere. Poulson’s practice takes an archaeological approach to Angolan symbols, codes, and cultural objects to untangle histories, oral traditions, and geopolitics. Seen together, her works shed new light on the transnational circulation of images and material culture in the wake of the Angolan Civil War.
