Exhibition Artist Joshua Searle
"Responding to the colonial history of ownership over the bodies and creations of Black, Brown and Indigenous people, ‘Not Your Parrot’ is a statement of defiance; a rejection of historic methods of treatment.
Referencing the carved head of a staff from the Gunadule people of Colombia’s north west, the artist is relating his experiences of societal treatment of bodily ownership to the illegal trade and theft of Indigenous objects from his mother’s homeland Colombia. This particular object stands in defiance to these histories; the Guna revolted against the Panamanian government's attempts to suppress their customs and culture."
