            Zimbabwe Pavilion tackles burning global topics

THE Zimbabwe Pavilion contains the work of Virginia Chihota, Portia Zvavahera and Rashid Jogee on its walls. Installations by Vhoti Thebe and Michele Mathison occupy the remaining space in the Santa Maria della Pieta, a grand old church in Venice. That makes it a perfect place to answer questions set by the theme, “Dudziro: Interrogating the Visions of Religious Beliefs”.
There is an additional artist present at the Zimbabwe Pavilion, a Franco-Danish conceptual artist who goes by the name of Thierry Geoffroy.

The Colonel, as he is commonly addressed, is at the Zimbabwe Pavilion using the platform of the “Mobile Emergency Room” to address matters such as climate change and global conflict by giving space to artists to use this “Mobile Emergency Room” to express their views.
The artist is part of The Maldives Pavilion, the situation in that country being the source of the need for urgent response.

The Maldives are a group of islands in the Indian Ocean that are at sea level and due to global warming, are at risk of being fully engulfed by the sea.

The format of the “Mobile Emergency Room” is developed from the artist’s “Emergency Room” concept which employs artists to debate on necessary issues before they become irrelevant
