Iris Kensmil: Some of my Souls
Including a selection of artworks created since 2007 to date, Some of My Souls focuses on Iris Kensmil’s long-standing interest in the role that Black intellectuals, music, and convening has had in emancipation struggles and cultural developments at large. Her art installations, paintings, and drawings figure catalyzers of social change, whether these are sites, events, or people. Raised in Suriname during her early childhood, Kensmil was born in Amsterdam, where she currently lives and works. Her exhibition survey presents the artist’s newest body of work, portraying creative and influential Black young women in the Netherlands, with whom Kensmil recently collaborated for Beeldbepalers at De Baile.
