Join us for the finissage of Water Narratives by the Mangacu Collective on Saturday 29 October! We are open in the afternoon, from 14:00 to 17:00. Afterwards there will be music by DJ Juan Felipe from Colombia, and there will be snacks and care in our green bar-not-a-bar. Be welcome!
What could water tell us if it could speak?
This project contributes to the conversations on decoloniality in the form of an art project consisting of a number of workshops and an exhibition at HMK, departing from two distant harbor cities: Tumaco at the Colombian coast and Hoorn in the Netherlands. These cities have been marked by their colonial past that defines their present day. With this project, the Mangacu Collective from Colombia brings together two geographical contexts marked by water: Hoorn and Tumaco, both cities were enslaved people arrived to never return home.
In the cinema: Might it be the Nostalgia of the Water?, Mangacu Collective, 2022 (produced during their stay at HMK).
