Abstract

- Until recently it has been very unusual to encounter work by artists problematising their identification with ‘whiteness’ or as the coloniser. But, in recent years research has shown ‘white’ European artists travelling to former colonies to make sense of repressed histories that continue to haunt the European consciousness. This paper considers how some ‘white’ artists highlighting European colonial entanglements are able to add to a postcolonial artistic framework. Using the examples of British artists Lindsay Seers and Miranda Pennell, who trace their own personal history and involvement in the colonial space, this paper discusses how they reimagine and reinvent family histories, highlighting uncomfortable personal relationships and bring the ghosts back to Europe. In addition, they open up a space from where works on mixed belongings and heritages and shifting identifications can be contextualised.
