The Pavilhão Julião Sarmento presents Entre Continentes (Between Continents), an exhibition by Iris Buchholz Chocolate, an artist born in Germany in 1974 who since 2003 has had permanent contact with the capital of Angola, first working for the Luanda Triennial and then, from 2010 onwards, also making the city her place of residence. The artist's solo exhibition brings together two installations that will be shown for the first time in Portugal. In A Sul. O Sombreiro (2015), a set of sculptural objects , including wigs, armour, helmets and ceremonial garments , evoke the structures of military, secular and ecclesiastical power. The title refers to the novel of the same name by Pepetela, inspired by the colonial conquest of the Benguela region in the 17th century. Developed over two years, the installation resulted from the collaboration between hairdressers, blacksmiths, tailors and seamstresses from Luanda and Vienna, in a process that brings African artisanal techniques closer to visual codes associated with European courts. The second installation, Tudo Aquilo de Que Não Nos Lembramos (2022, 2026), immerses us in an environment covered in blue fabric, accompanied by a sound composition of (underwater) breathing, wind and fire. The work evokes issues related to memory, ancestors, the transatlantic slave trade and historical conflicts, but also water scarcity, marine pollution and the environmental crisis. Here too, drawing on literary references, notably José Eduardo Agualusa's work Estação das Chuvas (Rainy Season), the installation articulates past, present and the possibility of a future built collectively. The title Entre Continentes refers to the transit between Europe and Africa, addressing the relations between individual and collective memory, colonialism, migration and intergenerational transmission. The public programme accompanying the exhibition includes the workshop A Pele do Invisível (The Skin of the Invisible), led by the artist on 5 and 6 November, from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m., with activities of creation, reflection and writing aimed mainly at young audiences, and a Conversation in the Gallery with the artist, on 7 November, at 4 p.m. Tuesday to Sunday, from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Technical sheet: Curated by Isabel Carlos.
