Jojo Gronostay   (GHAN-DE, 1987)

_

Brutalism, 2023

The Brutalist aesthetic has played a major role in the construction of the national identity of many West African countries.

Found in one of the largest second-hand clothes collection sites in the world, these heels reminded Gronostay of the Brutalist buildings in Africa as a means to question the economic, political, colonial and cultural exchanges between the African continent and the Western world.

He has created the platform DWMC (Dead White Man Cloths), which allows him to intervene in these exchange cycles between the two continents.

Artist presented as part of the European Month of Photography (EMOP). With the support of the Gœthe-Institut
