LONDON.- Tiwani Contemporary announces representation of Pamela Phatsimo Sunstrum.

Pamela Phatsimo Sunstrum was born in Mochudi, Botswana and currently lives and works in Johannesburg, South Africa. She has at times called various parts of Africa, Southeast Asia, Canada and the United States home. Motivated by her experiences in these diverse locales, Sunstrum explores how one's sense of identity develops within geographic and cultural contexts.

Sunstrum's multidisciplinary work makes allusions to mythological musings on the beginning of time, geological speculations of the earth's structure, theories on the nature of the universe and, most recently, 18th century European Romanticist landscape painting. Her investigation takes various forms, including large-scale installations, stop-motion films, performances and works on paper.

Sunstrum has previously exhibited at Tiwani Contemporary as part of the group exhibition Mythopoeia. A video animation featured in this display, The Star + The Moon, saw Sunstrum musing on the striking parallels and connections between ancient Ghanaian Adinkra symbology, the structure of the universe, the existence of parallel realities, the possibility of time travel and the symmetrical 'computer matrix-like' nature of time and space.

Recent exhibitions and performances include FRAC Pays de Loire, France (2013), Brundyn Gallery, Johannesburg, South Africa (2014), MoCADA, New York (2011) and the 2012 Havana Biennial.
