Njabala foundation would like to propose an artistic production and exhibition featuring two artists’ works - Samba Gown by Sandra Suubi and Little Black Dress short film by Esteri Tebandeke.
Njabala Foundation is currently fundraising to honour this invitation. Little Black Dress tells a story about a woman stuck in a cycle of routine, obligation and guilt figuring out a way to reset her life amidst a feminist uprising.
The short film features story a couple who are struggling with infertility and seeks to subvert the tendency to blame infertility on only the woman by creating a scenario in which the man too is not only responsible but also accountable.
Samba Gown is a performance piece re-enacting and rethinking the bride’s walk down the aisle. Throughout the performance, the bride is presented happy, smiling and looking like everything is okay while wearing a heavy gown in which she can hardly move.
