Statement
- Samson Kambalu's work originates from the Protestant tradition of
inquiry, criticism, and rebellion that he inherited from a rapildy Christianising
contemporary Sub-Saharan Africa of his childhood. Manifesting in various
media, from drawing, painting, installation, video to literature and
performance the work playfully employs excess, transgression, homour
and wit to test the boundaries of received ideas regarding art, identity,
religion and individual freedom.
