How do we live through and narrate moments of revolution and revolt, and how do we understand these experiences across time and distance? Using imaging technologies to meditate on what it means to witness from afar, Suneil Sanzgiri explores the complexities of anti-colonialism, nationalism, and diasporic identity. His work is inspired by his family’s legacy of resistance in Goa, India, an area under Portuguese occupation for over 450 years until its independence in 1961. Two Refusals (Would We Recognize Ourselves Unbroken?), the artist’s newest two-channel video installation, combines archival footage, animation, interviews, and a script written by poet Sham-e-Ali Nayeem. The film tells the stories of the mutual struggle in India and Africa against Portuguese colonialism, highlighting the solidarity that developed between the two continents during the 1960s and 1970s.
Here the Earth Grows Gold, Sanzgiri’s first solo museum exhibition, pairs the film with a 16 mm projection and new sculptural work. Modeled on bamboo structures seen across South Asia, the assemblage features family photos, 3D renderings, anti-colonial publications, and images of water and red clay soil from Goa that are drawn from his research. Together these works present the concept of diaspora as a way to reconfigure our understanding of history and belonging.
Sanzgiri (born Dallas, Texas, 1989; active in Brooklyn, New York) is the fourth recipient of the UOVO Prize, which recognizes the work of emerging Brooklyn-based artists. Winners receive a solo exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum, a commission for a fifty-square-foot public art installation on the facade of UOVO’s Brooklyn facility, and a $25,000 unrestricted cash grant. Sanzgiri’s mural is on view at UOVO Bushwick through July 2024.

Came here on September 19, 2017.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art is one of the most important museums in the world. With the influence of American imperialism, it has collected cultural relics and artworks from various civilizations around the world through plunder. Most of these exhibits are representative cultural relics of various civilizations. I believe that every visitor will feel mixed emotions here.

The entire museum is classified according to different civilizations on different continents. Because everyone knows the origin of the collections, the exhibition is very simple and crude, that is, putting the things of a civilization in one place, without any good narrative, it is completely a &quot;trophy&quot; display.

There are many collections here. If you want to see them carefully, you need to spend one or two days. The museum is next to Central Park, and the two places can also be arranged to visit in one day, half a day in the park and half a day in the museum.

The representative of New York, the United States, there are two lines to go, we are on the ferry, and there are speedboats to sit, but this is the most cost-effective. I went at two o&#39;clock in the afternoon. There were not many people. It was just right to come back. If I went in the morning, there were more tour groups and the queue was very long.

There were many tourists on the first day of the new year, but there were not many people in China, and the waiting time was reasonable. . .
The wind on the roof was too strong. The 80th floor was indoors, and there was reflection when taking pictures. You can go up to the 86th floor to take pictures outdoors, and you can overlook the whole New York.
