Dambudzo is a bold, anti-genre collapse of sound, painting, sculpture, and performance. In Shona, dambudzo means “trouble,” and it is also the name of Zimbabwean writer Dambudzo Marechera, who, along with other radical African thinkers, inspires nora’s exploration of the relationship between knowledge and language shaped under colonial rule. A glorious celebration of radical African presences, Dambudzo shatters clichés, defies conventions, and opens new spaces that transcend the limitations of language, while the artists are embodying more subtle ways of communicating and being together.
