Jano observes the textile cultures through Portuguese colonial practices to Japanese kimono heritage.
About
KIM-KIM is an exhibition that weaves together distinct cultures which span Africa, Europe and Asia through the kimono.
It causes us to reflect upon our connections with familiar,
quotidian objects and the meanings we attribute to them.
The exhibition also evokes ideas of cultural appropriation and assimilation, not only those resulting from European
colonialism but also the more innocent and productive
cultural exchange between peoples.
