Abstract or Description: | In the installation Statecraft (2014), the short century of decolonization is envisioned as a political calendar assembled from the medium of the postage stamp issued to commemorate the independence of African nation-states from Liberia in 1847 to South Sudan in 2011 integrated into an elaborate display system that reveals the convergence of Pan-Africanist Pop with Social Realist portraiture. |
