Samson Kambalu's 'Nyau cinema' short films draw inspiration from Malawi's Gule Wamkulu masquerade culture. Transformative and transgressive, Kambalu's films use urban settings to explore radical subjectivity, transcending daily life conventions. The catalogue showcases selected films exhibited in Johannesburg, Cape Town, and the 56th Venice Biennale, accompanied by an in-depth interview with Kambalu on his artistic practice.
