The Nelson Mandela Centre for African Culture, Port Louis, Mauritius, in collaboration with the Manhyia Palace Museum, is pleased to announce the joint opening of the exhibition Forgotten Saints I – From Slaves to Saints.

The exhibition features 35 paintings by Seychellois artist Emmanuel D’Offay, co-curated by Stephanie Latulipe. Through his work, D’Offay explores themes of history, identity, memory, and the enduring legacy of African people and their descendants.

The event will bring together cultural institutions and audiences from across the region to reflect on shared African histories and celebrate the power of art to preserve and reinterpret forgotten stories.
