Press Release

Sandra Mujinga will present a monumental exhibition in the museum’s lower-level gallery. Mujinga’s practice draws on speculative fiction and world building to investigate alternatives to our current society. She addresses topics like visibility and dis/appearance combined with socio-political realities, sustenance, post-humanism, perception, and blackness.

This ties into the ways in which we live in a world we barely understand, since both technology and nature are beyond our comprehension and control. Mujinga addresses this condition through metaphors and physical perceptions to convey experiences through sound, light, ambiences, and imposing sculptures that often create unsettling effects and affect. Her solo at the Stedelijk will focus on the relationship between the viewer and space to emphasize the reciprocal nature of our environment.

The exhibition is curated by Vincent van Velsen.

About the Artist

Sandra Mujinga’s multidisciplinary practice is driven by a profound interest in the body – and its absence. In her uncanny installations, ghostly hooded figures, sculptures resembling flayed skins, and fantastical hybrid creatures are made instruments of observation.

About the Gallery

The Stedelijk Museum is the place where everyone can discover and experience modern and contemporary visual art and design 365 days a year. The Stedelijk Museum was founded in 1874 by a group of private citizens in Amsterdam, led by C.P. van Eeghen, who donated funds and their art collections to establish a museum in the capital of the Netherlands that would be devoted to modern art. The collection, housed at first at the Rijksmuseum, was moved in 1895 into the Museum’s own building, designed by A.W. Weissman.
