Beyond Entropy Africa and Oratorio di San Ludovico by Nuova Icona present “no longer with the memory but with its future” an exhibition by the artist Mónica de Miranda, curated by Paula Nascimento on the occasion of Biennale Arte 2022, La Biennale di Venezia.
The exhibition revolves around the video work “Path to the Stars”.
"Inspired by the homonymous poem by Agostinho Neto, this video was filmed along the Kwanza River, the longest river in Angola, and the vitality and strength of the river ecosystem works as an analogy between the body and the water and their relationship to history – the river is directly in the history of the Atlantic,” the statement read.
The exhibition is completed by a publication, which includes an introduction written by Vittorio Urbani and texts by Paula Nascimento, Ana Nolasco, Marisa Moorman and Yara Monteiro.
Mónica de Miranda, born in Porto in 1976, is a Portuguese artist of...Angolan origin, who lives and works between Lisbon and Luanda.
