At the Sommerblut Festival, Reinaldo Ribeiro and Lucia Oiro bring a performance, a film, and a discussion on decolonization and democracy to the stage.

In their work, Reinaldo Ribeiro and Lucia Oiro ask: What must go so that we can build something new?

About the content: Sulwe is only two years old, she is "German-Kenyan," Reinaldo Ribeiro is "queer" and "Afro-Brazilian." Visa applications and bureaucracy shape their movements – and their identity. Who determines who they are or may be? They interact with a material: bricks. The brick, along with the bodies that manipulate it, becomes the subject. Looting is a practice from the colonial era. Bricks are a symbol of reconstruction for us. At the Rautenstrauch-Joest Museum, which has been dealing with the reassessment of its colonial history for several years, it can be experienced live during the festival how various artists make decolonization and democratization tangible.
