Jabu Arnell, born St. Maarten, Dutch West Indies, studied in the USA and in the Netherlands. Arnell’s work is an interplay between weakness and power flow. It holds images of cause and effect between the body and the mind. Every image that occurs to him, is a living figure, even if it has a translucent appearance or no physical appearance, and is for example, a scent, a path of energy, or a contemplation. In the past, in November and December 2016, and in the beginning of January 2017, Jabu Arnell was our Thami Mnyele Foundation award artist in residence.
