The year 2023 was dedicated to the commemoration of 160 years of slavery. In this collaborative project called First Nation Creolisation, 7.1 Giovanni Abath, Albert Kramer and I chose the oppressed peoples of Curaçao during colonization as their theme, starting with the Caquetíos. Our sculptures are tributes to these groups and our heritage. I created a work in which I combined the decorations of the Caquetíos in their ceramics with those of African peoples that can be found in my DNA. Artist Albert Kramer helped me realising this sculpture as it is was the first time I worked with Acrylic One material. The shape has the language of Amerindian as African tribes. This resulted in a joint work that bears the name Curakaubá. Interesting is that ​many of the decorative elements of the ​peoples were identical.
