[Personal announcement of what I consider my own most significant moving image work.]
Nederlandt Wordt Beter - a traveling exhibition that wraps up years of anti-Zwarte Piet protests in the Netherlands, to be shown at Theater Rotterdam today, Sunday Dec 7th, 3-5 pm/15-17.00.
It includes the live video stream that I shot for Kick Out Zwarte Piet in November 2018, during the protests on the Erasmus Bridge in Rotterdam. The video also shows the (mostly racist) live comments of Facebook users on the page where it was streamed. The installation will come with a trigger warning, not only because of the comments, but also because of the brutality against protesters depicted in the video.
With special thanks to Sidris van Sauers and Jerry Afriyie for including this piece in the Rotterdam exhibition.
