Everything is Connected: African Artists & Curators in the 60th edition of the Venice Biennale - Sandra Poulson in conversation with Folasade Ologundudu
On this episode I'm joined by Sandra Poulson. Sandra Poulson is an Angolan artist based in London and Luanda. Poulson draws from personal experiences and observations growing up in Luanda, Angola, a former Portuguese colony. Her work investigates the political, cultural, and socio-economic landscape of Angola analyzing the relationship between history, oral tradition, and global political structures. I first discovered Poulson’s work earlier this year on a trip to Sharjah when I visited the Sharjah Art Foundation and The Africa Institute. At the time, Poulson’s work, as part of the Sharjah Architecture Triennale, was still on view.
This exclusive season of Everything is Connected: African Artists & Curators in the 60th edition of the Venice Biennale is sponsored by The Africa Institute, Global Studies University.
