Red Kwoma

Mythical paintings from New Guinea

This exhibition presents the paintings of three contemporary artists from New Guinea (East Sepik province): Kowspi Marek, Chiphowka Kowspi and Agatoak Kowspi.

About the exhibition

Via the founding myth of the Kwoma people, the exhibition tells the story of how men came from the earth thanks to a boar which returned covered in red earth.

The visitor will be presented with the myth as a way of making sense of the world.  Designed in collaboration with the artists and Kwoma communities, this exhibition shows how determined this culture is to have a future.
