Welke vormen van autonome infrastructuur (bijv. in sommige vluchtelingenkampen, gemeenschappelijke keukens) kunnen een proces, een gereedschap, een methodologie of een strategie voor dekolonisatie worden? Hoe kunnen we betekenissen en ideeën over de geleefde realiteiten van ‘gastvrijheid’ delen en onderzoeken?

BAK 2017–2018 Fellows Pelin Tan evenals Isshaq Al-Barbary en Diego Segatto van Campus in Camps gaan in discussie over onze hedendaagse tijd van nomadisch bestaan en over leefomstandigheden in steden en betwiste gebieden waarin het mogelijk is een gedekoloniseerde infrastructuur te onderhouden.

In all continents, people have built matriarchal cosmologies sustained by complex rituals. In the advent of main modern religions and after centuries of colonizing invasions, the goddesses of antiquity were suppressed by the patriarchal structures that consolidated our era. However, they found ways to speak to us in the language of patterns, melodies, and poems. This workshop uses the voice as a method to reveal the presence of goddesses.
