SUMMARY:Consortium Meeting 2025: Embodied & Braided
DESCRIPTION:Join us in our annual Consortium Meeting 2025: Embodied & Braided on the 19th and 20th May in the Wereldmuseum Leiden! We are happy to present our programme for the third annual gathering of the Re/Presenting Europe consortium. We are thrilled to welcome project members alongside participants\, commentators\, students\, and those of you who are simply curious and want to hear more about our work. All are welcome! Scroll down or find our full programme here.\n\nFor attending this event\, registration through this link is mandatory. The Consortium Meeting 2025 will be open to the public starting the Monday’s afternoon. Remember to check out Reframing HERstory Performances as part of our closing program here. \n\nOur inspiration this year is to consider the embodied\, and braided histories and experiences of people and communities in the Netherlands and\, more broadly\, Europe who have been affected by migration and colonialism. These experiences which are embodied\, spiritual\, and societal\, have braided new communities together in ways that are entangled with violence\, trauma\, and also joy. This year we pay particular attention to the oceanic connections linking the Netherlands\, Suriname\, and the Caribbean.\n\nWe have intentionally foregrounded the work of our early-career researchers in the program. We invite you to enjoy\, reflect on\, and offer responses to\, their work now they have reached the mid-point of their research journey in the project. In addition to their research panels\, we have responsive workshops that rely on our active participation to reflect on how we work together in community-engaged research\, teaching\, and classrooms.’\n\nThe program brings together bodies\, senses and minds\, with music\, food\, dancing\, and lively panel discussions of fiction and history.  Farida Nabibaks and “Re/Framing Herstory” showcase embodied research in a stunning dance triptych\, performed in its entirety across the two days – and tickets come with a free drink ( more info here)! Kaiama Glover and Laurent Dubois begin a lively roundtable on their new translation of Jean-Claude Fignolé’s novel Aube tranquille (Quiet Dawn)\, by reading from it. The novel and round table will explore the challenges of translation across disciplines\, languages and time\, resonating with themes of braiding past and present\, oceanic and Caribbean connections\, communities and the legacies of colonialism.\n\nA final word of thanks and inspiration. We are grateful to the Wereld Museum Leiden for hosting us\, and invite you to take advantage of the opportunity to explore the museum in our extended lunch break on Tuesday – or on any of the breaks.\n\nEnjoy! Engage with our work\, and thank-you for your presence.\n\n \n\nCover Image by Lis Camelia

SUMMARY:Muziek- & danstheater Schitterende Schaduw deel 2\, ANNA\, en deel 3\, Louise (20th of May at the Leidse Stadtsgehoorzaal)
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Stadtsgehoorzal (Leiden) on the 20th of May for two inspiring performances by Reframing HERstory Art Foundation as part of the official closing programme of our annual consortium meeting 2025. Find out more about our annual consortium conference held in Wereldmuseum Leiden here.  \nMusic- & dance theatre Radiant Shadow consists of three music- and dance theatre performances of approx. 30 – 45 minutes each after which the audience is invited to a short reflection. Two of the three perfromances will feature in this evening programme. It centers around the necessity of delving into the colonial history of the Province of Gelderland and its current reverberations. These productions will each show an underrepresented part of our shared history\, the dark side of Dutch prosperity. In all three productions the music and dance are central\, the emotions speak\, the heart is touched. \nProduced by Reframing HERstory Art Foundation \nReframing HERstory Art Foundation\, located in Arnhem\, is the producer of the performance and workshop programme. With this work the foundation contributes to raising awareness and bringing education about the colonial and slavery past of Gelderland\, through music and dance theatre performances\, and a programme with a focus on healing from this past. After the 150th commemoration of emancipation\, the emphasis is on the urgency to bring the voices that were marginalized to the fore and reflect on this history that is still present today. \nBuy tickets here \n  \n\nANNA: The second Radiant Shadow production\, about a Black woman who lived in Arnhem in the 18th Century. Little is known about her. What we do know is that she was born in slavery on the Vossenburg plantation in Suriname. The owner was a Dutchman from Arnhem. When he died\, Anna accompanied his two daughters\, almost her own age\, from Suriname to their new home in Arnhem. Her life was spent in obscurity\, but she must have been a spectacle being a Black woman. Who was she? How was she treated\, and how did she feel? She comes to life in our performance: ANNA. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLOUISE: This concluding part of the Radiant Shadow triptych takes us to the colonial past of Gelderland of 18th Century and the marginalized lives of women in those days. After the 150th Commemoration of emancipation of slavery in the Kingdom of the Netherlands it is time to acknowledge the past and bring the suffered pain and hidden shadows that enabled 18th Century prosperity and wealth to light. To direct us\, with heightened awareness\, to move towards a new\, more inclusive and just\, global society. \n\n\n\nThe performance Louise is based on the embroidery of the 18th Century (white) woman Louise van Ommeren- Hengevelt from Arnhem (1794). Embroidery and needlepoint were often seen as ‘craft’ instead of a work of Art\, as it was part of what women produced in the domain of their homes. But this embroidery is\, apart from a virtuous and beautiful needlework in striking colours\, also a protest against slavery. What made this well-to-do woman in Arnhem stitch such a protest on slavery? What does it say about her and her life as a woman in this Dutch colonial and patriarchic society?
