Isabel Tueumuna Katjavivi: They tried to bury us

They tried to bury us is a scene of remembrance. The faces represent the multitudes that were never laid to rest. They serve as a metaphor for history, representing a past that is unresolved and unfinished – both emerging from, and disintegrating into, the tainted earth in which they lie. Isabel Tueumuna Katjavivi is a visual artist in Windhoek, Namibia.
