Tristany Mundu. City around the City

Event Slider

Tristany Mundu's first solo exhibition features a brand new video installation commissioned by CAM.

Tristany Mundu (b. 1995) is a Portuguese musician and producer of Angolan descent who explores invisibilised and sometimes romanticised realities. He grew up and lives near the Sintra rail corridor on the outskirts of Lisbon, a reality he represents through his own gaze and the gaze of the people around him. He is a founding member of the Unidigrazz collective, made up of young people who were born, raised and live in the parish of Algueirão-Mem Martins, one of the most populous in the country.

‘City around the City’ is a videoinstallation commissioned by CAM to Tristany Mundu. Through a triple projection and a set of textile pieces he calls ‘flags,’ the artist fuses the real with the surreal.

In this videoinstallation, the artist explores distinct visualities marked by vibrant colours and deep symbolism, reflecting the cultural richness of the city in constant movement.
