Saturday, September 28, 8 pm\u00a0 \u201cCreativity is an ancient intuition. Art is a modern institution. I use creativity to claim space in the world, to tell the stories of my life and the lives before me. I write about blackness to challenge the misconceptions of my identity. My creativity is political and unapologetic and is meant to inspire others to this creative common world. Jupiter Child<\/strong> is a Mozambican-born artist, residing in Copenhagen. A multifaceted performer and visual artist, drawing inspiration from black history and their Makonde ancestry, Jupiter combines theater, dance, song, spoken word and storytelling. Jupiter\u2019s art is an anti-colonial intervention that speaks of resistance, womanism, migration, queerness and empowerment.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" On September 28 at 8 pm sharp we welcome performer and visual artist Jupiter Child, crossing the bridge from Copenhagen with Stories&Moods, a spoken word and poetry performance to be treasured in the movement of the long Malm\u00f6 Gallery Night.

On September 28, we welcome performer and visual artist Jupiter Child, crossing the bridge from Copenhagen with Stories&Moods<\/em>, a spoken word and poetry performance to be treasured in the movement of the long Malm\u00f6 Gallery Night. The deeply personal performance will take place with closed doors, so thank you for arriving on time.\u00a0 Stories&Moods <\/em>is part of the public program of the ongoing exhibition Absence that fades after a while: Youngjae Lih and Saodat Ismailova<\/em>. Lih\u2019s and Ismailova\u2019s evocative installations can be viewed during the Gallery Night between 6-8 Pm and from 9 Pm till midnight.\u00a0<\/p>\r\nIn the artist\u2019s words:<\/h4>\r\n
In a collection of poems folded in nostalgic childhood memories\u00a0 and other stories, told in diverse poetic moods, I strive to release the lingering residuals of postcolonial heritage that shaped my identity and set the foundation for the waking and reinvention of my black consciousness.\u201d
we scratched the bottom until our nails fell off<\/em>
we lost a grip of hope for a moment, but yet did not give up<\/em>
for those we carried on our backs<\/em>
those we wrapped in our rags of desperation<\/em>
frustration, retaliation and damnation<\/em>
we held them above the waters<\/em>
ready to drown with pride, we were ready to fall at the shores of freedom<\/em>
cause our determination stood tall and firm, still holding the torch of our conviction<\/em>
I\u2019ve been eaten by quicksands , dumped to\u00a0 “wonderland”<\/em>
far from my motherland, longing a fatherland?<\/em>
he sold me this dreamland, cast me beyond swaziland<\/em>
to the end of times, to the borderline between<\/em>
day and night, now and never, heaven and hell<\/em>
good and evil, love and hate, light and dark, human and computer<\/em>
between our world and others, sanity and insanity, captive and free.<\/em>
