decolonial minimalism

A philosophical, cultural, and aesthetic movement that merges the principles of minimalism with decolonial thought. It advocates for rejecting excessive consumerism and colonial influences in favor of intentional, ethical, and culturally rooted practices. Decolonial minimalism emphasizes sustainability, indigenous knowledge systems, and the reclamation of identity through simplicity and conscious choices.
His paintings embody decolonial minimalism, stripping away colonial aesthetics to highlight indigenous symbols and narratives in their rawest, most powerful form.
