Remy Jungerman’s work explores the intersection of pattern and symbol in Surinamese Maroon culture, the larger African Diaspora, and twentieth-century modernism. Jungerman challenges the established art historical canon by bringing seemingly disparate visual languages into conversation. Art and culture critic Greg Tate writes “Jungerman’s work leaps boldly and deftly into the epistemological gap between culturally confident Maroon self-knowledge and the Dutch learning curve around all things Jungerman, Afropean, and Eurocentric.”
