David Shongo, composer and contemporary artist from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), presents his first solo-exhibition in Belgium, From Dead to Living Memory, at the Tommy Simoens Gallery. The exhibition investigates themes of collective memory, trauma, and the ongoing impact of colonialism through immersive art, film, and sound. By blending contemporary geopolitical concerns with historical events, Shongo invites the audience to reflect on how memory—both personal and collective— shapes and continues to affect the present, through the analogy of Dead (ROM) and Living Memory (RAM).
