Dentro Di Nos Tempo: de Kaapverdische tijdcapsule
In this workshop by Janilda Bartolomeu, Cape Verdeans in Rotterdam are invited to make a time capsule together.
A time capsule for the Cape Verdean community
In the workshop Dentro Di Nos Tempo, 'In Our Time', you will build a time capsule together with other Cape Verdeans from Rotterdam for both the past and the future of this community in the city. The workshop ties in with Another Island, the film installation by Janilda Bartolomeu about the dreams and imagination of the Cape Verdean diaspora. Bartolomeu invites you to reflect on what you would pass on to future generations, and what you would like to receive from your ancestors.
Time as a collective experience
Bartolomeu does not approach time as linear or one-dimensional. Time is something you can experience culturally and collectively, such as within the memories of the African diaspora. The workshop builds on Letras Pa Futuro, a previous workshop at the Nieuwe Instituut. Together, you assemble a time capsule that reaches out to future generations and looks back at the past. In doing so, you make room for memories that fall outside conventional historiography and open up alternative futures.
