‘Fortia 01’, 2017, by Keyezua (@iamkeyezua).
.
Angolan-born multimedia artist Keyezua (@iamkeyezua) challenges prejudiced narratives about Africa, and recreates transformative stories often about the female experience.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In her recent series, ‘Fortia’, the Latin for strength, Keyezua accepts the passing of her father and reflects on his last days as a man with disability. "I created these images to talk about his death and to finally let him go in a masked ritual."
.
At first glance, the images appear as stereotypical fashion and beauty representations of black women, however, Keyezua’s intention is to reimagine physical disabilities in a positive way, represented in the mask, which was created by a group of disabled men. "Fortia tries to bring a different reading to images by creating images that don’t immediately scream sorrow, loss and survival."

Come, let us sing
.
friends
let us open the Bible
and read
o Almighty Spirit
let these words go to our hearts!
from the 2nd book of Moses
exodus
chapter 4, verses 1 and 2
o God
make light for us with these words as with candles!
.
so Moses answered
but what if they don't believe me?
that God appeared to me?
.
and God said to him: you will lead your people
what is in your hand?
and Moses said: a staff
.
now friends
this is all he had
this man of God
a staff
a dead piece of wood
and on top of that he had a stutter
.
but God spoke to him for a long time
about how he killed the Egyptian with that staff
and Moses hung his head in shame
and then suddenly
that same staff was a snake!
.
now friends
God brought to me his miracle also
he asked: what is in your hand?
and friends
in my hand was my guitar
.
.
