'Electric Dub Station' is a collaborative project by visual artists Antonio Guzman and Iva Jonkovic. It contains a range of references; from a reinterpretation of indigo blue textiles, deeply rooted in the history of Western colonialism to contemporary migration issues, visualized through the use of Guzman's DNA in their work. Guzman was born in Panama, has a diverse background with different ethnicities and lives and works in Amsterdam. Jankovic was born in Belgrade and also lives here. For the series, they use the Ajrakh indigo block print technique. The designs are created in their studio in Amsterdam and executed in the Sufiyan Khatri studio in Ajrakhpur, India. Ajrakh block printing is more than 4,000 years old and the indigo pigment the first natural source of blue dyes.
