In the context of provenance research and the history of the German colonial collectors from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Daniela Zambrano Almidón and Amelia Uzategui Bonilla approach the topic of restitution from their perspective as part of the Quechua-descendant diaspora living in Europe today.
Seeking to support the development of Andean identities and anti-colonial knowledge in Frankfurt Rhein-Main, the artists will host learning circles addressing the topics of racism as part of the colonial project, cultural appropriation, the exhibition of indigenous human remains in German museums, and indigenous rights. They will share films, cultural practices, and facilitate discourse.

Referencing music from the Andes, archive material and traditional cultural dances, they will develop an audiovisual installation and dance performance. Audio description and language translation will aim to provide access to German, English, and Spanish language speakers as well as blind and visually impaired audiences.
