Odyssey of Reconnection
Odyssey of Reconnection is a personal project that explores the artist’s connection to his fatherland: Cabo Verde. The evolution of Cabo Verde as a nation speaks for the wider dialogue of culture and how it travels and evolves. Being birthed of both European and African ancestors through a colonial past, Cabo Verde has formed a uniquely authentic culture reminiscent of traits along the Americas. It thus blurs the lines of identity and puts to question where one cultural identity stops and another begins.
