Masters
07 Jul 2023 — 03 Sep 2023
Masters is a newly commissioned moving image work by Zimbabwean-Canadian artist Shaun Motsi. In this show, the film Masters explores how knowledge production and distribution is used to perpetuate racial hierarchies, and how biases in educational spaces shape how information is formed and shared. The work offers an approach for destabilising established methodologies of constructing an ontology of identity in cinema, and scrutinises standardised approaches to Black representation in visual cultures.
