This year we are proud to present iduku [01], a new limited edition artwork by Johannesburg-based artist Nolan Oswald Dennis launched on the occasion of Art Rotterdam 2025. This 70 × 70 cm cloth, produced in South Africa, features a sublimation print on armani silk of Nolan's signature models and diagrams. Each edition entitles the bearer to a 3D printed rock from Nolan's ongoing installation Isivivane/Superpositions. The cloth folds into a furoshiki wrap to hold and protect your chosen rock. The design embodies a dual perspective: one side reflects a scientific worldview, while the other hints at the histories and knowledge systems that such perspectives often erase.
Developed from Isivivane/Superpositions—currently on view at Kunstinstituut Melly—this edition expands Nolan’s ongoing inquiry into land, memory, and cyclical systems of reproductive labor. The 3D-printed rocks which this installation produces over the course of the exhibition are modelled after geological specimens from South African museums, reinforcing the work’s exploration of land, displacement, and planetary time. Produced in an edition of 200, iduku [01] invites us to reconsider the ways in which history, science, and spiritual geographies intersect.
Visit us at Booth G6 to experience the edition for yourself, priced at €350 a piece.
