HJP is an Angolan architecture, art and research practitioner dissecting philosophical and scenographic frameworks in relation to enacted modes of power, moral codes and Christian discipleship. His work seeks to push boundaries between visual media and socially engaged practices, using mixed media installations, placemaking and still-moving-images as sites of contestation.
Supported by the Sir Frank Bowling Scholarship, Paris’s ongoing doctoral investigation traces the entanglements between contemporary built environments and stigmatised social experiences. It attends to immersive modes of historiography and discourse production.
