patricia kaersenhout (we/us)
born in the Netherlands but a descendant from Surinamese parents, we developed an artistic journey in which we investigate our Surinamese background in relation to an upbringing in West European culture.
the political thread in our work raises questions about the African diaspora’s movements and its relation to feminism, sexuality, racism and the history of slavery.
by revealing forgotten histories we try to regain dignity and create transformative justice.
