Dahomey 2024
Watched, as if through the eyes of our surrounding object-witnesses - Diop shepherds us through the necessary discourse of post-colonial artifact return, and the multidimensional human relationship we have with historical art objects - their retention of power and cultural agency amidst the stain of colonial looting, the displacement scars of people-as-property, and the hierarchies of personhood in relation to deep-time.
