In Search of Ubuntu,( a search for what makes us human) is a major investigative -research based project, that reflects through the Artistic lens on our Shared Colonial History, with the aim of understanding the Causes of the Reproduction of Violence, Inequality, Oppression, Racism, Sexism, Exploitation and Environmental degradation on the one hand and to bring to light and connect the dots, between this history, and the Current State of our World, from the perspective of "Trade", the East India and West companies. It is a Search for Ubuntu, "what makes us human – and what connects us." I chose the Dutch Golden Age as a point of departure because understanding the current state of our world and finding solutions to the climate crisis, poverty, inequality, racism and dismantling of the violent imperial capitalist structures, requires understanding how we got here in the first place. This important period of Dutch history, also connected to 17th century American Colonial history, nearly 400 years of Indonesian Colonial history, is vital in understanding the aftermath of the global power struggle between England and the Dutch Republic.
