Throughout her stay, Chona took advantage of her time at Villa Lena to create<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> think tanks for exchange and expansion while creating a deep connection with the surrounding environment and community.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>We are very happy to catch up again with Chona to reflect on her time at Villa Lena and her future projects.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>VL: Can you please introduce yourself and your practice, what are working on at the moment and what ideas or questions are you focused on?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BC: I am Banji Chona and I\u2019m a multitude of expressions but for the sake of the direction of this conversation I am an Archivist and an Artivist. These are both portmanteaus I coined to fit my current artistic practice. My most recent bodies of work have mostly been grounded in archival heritage research from my home country of Zambia and are expressed through collage imagery. This medium I find has the ability to blend the history with the present using elements from both realities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I channel a strong sense of decoloniality in my practice as my work is oriented towards transmitting the visceral need to bring to life accessible spaces and bodies of work dedicated to fostering nuanced artistic and cultural dialogue that directly challenge hegemonic occidental systems. I believe challenging and rewriting history is a key to opening a door that can lead to an entire radical reimagining of what Zambia and Africa as a whole look like and mean to zambian and african people.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>VL: During your past residency at VL, you worked on your latest research project, then exhibited at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackhistorymonthflorence.com\/\">BHMF<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sohohouse.com\/houses\/soho-house-rome\">Soho House in Rome<\/a>. It appears to be a very personal project, focused on your spiritual growth and how you processed\/are processing grief. How do you deal with exposing your rawest feelings and emotions to a wide audience?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BC: My artistry is and always has been a way of channeling my rawest feelings. Art in whatever form it takes shape, embodies that honesty, curiosity, rooted connection and resistance- core components I feel are the molding forces of art that I make and art that I\u2019m drawn to sharing my work is a way to connect to myself and my array of experiences as well as find ways in which experiences can be shared between and amongst people and sometimes entire communities. Our stories all intersect at some juncture on some line. We never know what those are until we bear them. At both the BHMF and Soho House exhibitions of Ngoma zya Budima, a piece focused on and around grief, I had chest opening conversations with people, new and old, about how my ability to be vulnerable in my work, to share the grit and the grime as well as the leaks in light opened them up to feeling, expressing and thinking in a different way. Those moments are what make me rationalise the very human doubt and flutters about being open.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>VL: We are thrilled to welcome three new artists selected from the 2022 open call in partnership with MQBMBQ. What would be your suggestion to them to fully take advantage of this opportunity and what do you wish for them to take back home?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BC: Carry your home on your back or behind you on wheels when you dart towards the verdant Tuscan folds. For in this home you can store and stash the new sounds, smells, tears and breakthroughs. From this home you can leave behind the rot and the noise and they&#8217;ll return to the earth and rest.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take deep breaths, feel the people around you, feel yourself around the people around you. Sit in your studio, on the minty pastel chairs in the kitchen. Take off your shoes and hear the leaves crunch beneath your feet in the forest the sun sets over. Find the glimmer and the flutter your heart beats.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carry your home on your back or behind you on wheels when you dart away from the verdant Tuscan folds. For this home will be new, it will be old, it will be yours and one with years worth of\u00a0 to be told.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>VL: And finally are there any artists \/ writers etc that you are particularly enjoying at the moment and what to share with us?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.christophermollerart.co.za\/artists\/tony-gum\">Toni Gum<\/a>, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/the.kraal\/?hl=en\">The Kraal<\/a>, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presentism2020.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Neema Githere, <\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.artofetheltawe.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ethel Tawe, <\/span><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amysall.com\/about\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amy Sall<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The artists will join the Villa Lena Foundation programme in July and August 2022, to find out more about the Foundation Programme please visit the Foundation website <a href=\"https:\/\/www.villa-lena.org\/\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Villa Lena Foundation in collaboration with MQBMBQ are excited to be able to share the opportunity for four artists&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":21139,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22902","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-creative-life"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 -
