I want you to know that I am hiding something from you / since what I might be is uncontainable

This two-part installation is concerned with the perception and visibility of racialized bodies. Nnebe creates an interactive experience for the viewer by playing with opacity and space; the act of navigating the gallery becomes a medium for the work itself. Focused on the process of racialization, specifically on how it impacts Black communities, the work attempts to ground discussions around representation in theory coming from the French Caribbean, as well as African cosmologies and folkloric traditions.
