Free participation
In his multimedia works, Nicholas Mboya addresses socio-political realities in his home country of Kenya alongside experiences of the African diaspora in Germany. In his first institutional solo exhibition entitled Utopia – Dystopia, the Hamburg-based artist reflects on the field of tension between idealized notions of belonging and actual experiences of exclusion.
In an interactive tour, Jaana Heine provides insight into the themes of the exhibition and introduces the groups of works on display.
