Currently Jamillas work is mainly about her identity and the search for who she is. Jamilla is a half Dutch – half Surinamese person, raised in the Netherlands. In the past two years she has started using her identity eithin her work, going deeper into both sides of her cultural identity and feeding this information back into her work. But Jamilla also tries to make room for all further fascinations that she has and encounter in her life. She believes that in addition to her cultural identity, all these different aspects also have a role in relation to her identity and therefore deserve a place in her art. In this she tries to find a balance between a serious and a more humorous, sometimes even cynical side.
