Denilson Baniwa

In December, the Concertation’s visual identity was based on series Colonial Fictions (or pretend I’m not here), by jaguar artist Denilson Baniwa, of Baniwa descent. Born in Rio Negro, inland Amazonas, Denilson’s work is the expression of his experience as an Indigenous Being of present times, combining traditional and contemporary indigenous references and appropriating western icons to communicate the thought and struggle of native peoples in different media and languages, such as canvas, installations, digital media and performances.
