From an enslaved boy to court servant, actor, and independent thinker. This exhibition was the story of an extraordinary life in 18th-century Sweden. It was also a story of slavery and colonialism. Visitors got to know Adolf Ludvig Couschi Badin through his own letters and writings, and met him in Salad Hilowle’s newly created film work, where he had been brought back to life and reflected on his life and on how others have seen him.
