The series deals with camouflage and thematises slavery and social contradictions, questioning the methods of Orientalism. It is a portrait of an African slave who was a member of a resistance group active until 1923, the so-called freedom fighters. In the installation, this portrait is juxtaposed with a hat with crocheted flowers, which was intended to serve as camouflage, and a mirror. The portrait is reproduced in the dimensions of the orientalist portrait of an African, ‘Bashi-Bazouk’, painted by Jean-Léon Gérôme in 1868-69 and exhibited in the Met Museum.

The series questions the historical and cultural representations of slavery and social contradictions, confronts the historical perspective of Orientalism and scrutinises the methods of masking and camouflaging these realities through a spatial installation.
