Co-editor of the Journal of Indentureship and its Legacies , Amar Wahab, interviews Dutch-Surinamese visual artist, Nazrina Rodjan, about her recent exhibition, Kala Pani:1873–2023 , which creatively intervenes in discourses about race, gender, queerness and indentureship in the Netherlands. Rodjan’s work is a critical response to the gendered racism within the Dutch archives and artworld, including its silencing of indentureship and its legacies. As such, the artist’s work is focused on ‘telling the stories and amplifying the voices of underrepresented communities,’ to counter the racism that is embedded within Dutch nationalism and homonationalism.
