# Nandipha Mntambo

Nandipha Mntambo (Mbabane, 1982) hegoafrikar artista da, eta famatu bihurtu da bere eskulturengatik, bideoengatik eta argazkiengatik. Emakumearen gorputza eta identitatea nabarmentzen ditu, materia organiko naturalak erabiliz.

## Biografia

Nandipha Mntambo Mbabanen jaio zen (Swazilandia, Afrika hegoaldea), 1982an. Hegoafrikan hazi zen apartheid garaian, Johannesburgon, eta, gero, Lurmutur Hirian . Bere aita artzain metodista da. Arte Ederretako masterra lortu zuen Lurmutur Hiriko Unibertsitateko Michaelis School of Fine Arts eskolan, 2007ko ekainean. Hegoafrikan bizi eta lan egiten du. Bere lanak Washingtongo National Museum of African Art, Seattle Art Museum eta Lurmutur Hiriko Zeitz Museum of Contemporary African Art-en bildumetako parte dira.

## Bere lanaren berezitasunak

Bere lanean, Mntambok giza gorputza eta identitatearen izaera biologikoa ditu ardatz, batez ere material naturalak erabiliz eta eskultura, bideoa eta argazkia erabiliz. Zenbait urtez, bere material gogokoenetako bat behiaren azala izan zen, sarritan, giza gorputzerako estalki gisa ere erabilia, arroparen eta gorputzaren beraren arteko mugan. Anbiguotasun hori eta ikusgarriaren eta ez-estetikoaren arteko tentsioa erabiltzen ditu, ikusleek azalaren bi alderdiak interpretatzeko duten moduarekin jolastuz. Honela esan zuen orduan: “Nire asmoa da azalaren propietate fisikoak eta ukimenezkoak aztertzea, bai eta emakumearen gorputza irudikatzeko testuinguruan, arte garaikidean, material hori manipulatzea ahalbidetzen edo eragozten didaten elementuak ere. Behi-azala erabili dut esperotako elkarketak gorputzaren presentziarekin, feminitatearekin, sexualitatearekin eta zaurgarritasunarekin iraultzeko baliabide gisa”. Batzuetan, bere gorputza erabiltzen du eskultura horien molde gisa.
