Danielle Lemaire, studiolife and work feb 2023- jan 2024

This movie was edited by Danielle Lemaire for her exhibition
'Le Chant De Saka Ladja' at gallery Traits Libres in Paris, february 2024.
The exhibition is on view from january 18 until march 3 2024.
This exhibition showcase works that emerged from several projects she did related to colonial history. There is a focus on narrative drawings based on colonial archive material. One of the things she studied was the wonderful 'The Song of Saka Ladja’ written by a Dutch priest, based on spiritual songs of the indigenous people of Flores, about the mystical cycles in nature and the universe.

The movie shows also excerpts from project 'Oh Tina!' in Bandung and zooms in on individual drawings.
