On Lies, Secrets and Silence

Frida Orupabo
  • Closed

"On Lies, Secrets and Silence" is the largest exhibition to date of Frida Orupabo’s thought-provoking work, offering an incisive exploration of identity, memory, and resistance. This dynamic presentation features her distinctive collage technique, alongside large-scale spatial and video installations, marking an evolution in her artistic practice. The exhibition is formed of 46 works, the majority of which are newly commissioned.

Orupabo’s work unearths the violence embedded in historical archives, popular culture, and digital media, transforming these sources into hauntingly powerful collages, sculptures, and videos. Rooted in photomontage, her process involves manipulating, cutting, and rearranging images to create works that challenge colonial legacies still present in contemporary social and political systems. Issues such as race, gender, sexuality, and family bonds are poignantly addressed, offering a space for both confrontation and reflection.
