ساعة التشفع | an hour of intercession
Amidst the horror of the latest escalation of destruction, devastation, and violation of international law in occupied Palestine, Lydia Ourahmane (Delfina Foundation artist-in-residence, 2016) and Sarah Ourahmane gathered communal prayers, spoken in both love and solidarity with the Palestinian people – from communities stretching from Algiers to Sidon – and wove them together to offer this hour of intercession.
Archival Futures (ongoing)
supports Guarani and Kaiowá Indigenous communities in Brazil to protect their cultural heritage and traditional knowledge while highlighting the challenges they face. The project aims to raise awareness of violence against them and support their daily struggle, as well as to promote broader understanding of Indigenous Brazilian contexts. It challenges exclusionary museum models by exploring new technologies and providing a collaborative example of producing and presenting cultural heritage collections.
The project presents the cosmo-vision and ecological perspectives of the Guarani and Kaiowá, offering an alternative model of human-nonhuman-ecology relationships and inspiring new ways to address the global climate crisis.
