“If imperialist domination has the vital need to practice cultural oppression, national liberation is necessarily an act of culture”.       

    -  Amilcar Cabral           1970

"Art for me is a collective expression that comes from the uses and customs of the people and leads to their social, mental, cultural and political evolution. Art is a musical instrument full of messages. These are messages that the artist selects to put together in front of humanity.”

  -  Malangatana

“Art for liberation” holds that:

​

  • art-making and cultural practice are rooted in own experience; making art (in any form) enables each person to understand lived events, and to create new concepts and frameworks from that understanding;

​

  • expression through art is part of communicating to others; it builds collective understanding and shared vision; and 

​​

  • this leads to mobilising and transforming the our community.
