| Samenvatting | Portraits of the historical figure of Black Pete who plays servant to Sinta Klaas in the Dutch Christmas myth. These startling portraits of velvet-clad white women and children blacked-up as Zwarte Piet playfully reveal an ambiguous character who sits uncomfortably in European history. This work reveals the possible histories of the Danish mythical character Black Pete , assistant to Saint Nicholas, patron saint of children. The book comprises 23 portraits of mostly women and children, their blacked-up faces, reddened lips and rich clothing uncomfortably fixing the viewers gaze. The sitters poses suggest a sense of unease surrounding thier identity and position in contemporary Danish culture. The photographs document the character over a five year period, tracing a shift in its representation from that of an aggressive figure to one that, perhaps, more resembles a clown. |
