On My Way Home
Participative performance by Reinlado Ribeiro
Aufführung des Stücks "ON MY WAY HOME" von Reinaldo Reibeiro und Lucia Oiro im Rautenstrauch-Joest-Museum in Köln – Aufführung des Stücks "ON MY WAY HOME" von Reinaldo Reibeiro und Lucia Oiro im Rautenstrauch-Joest-Museum in Köln

Sulwe is only three years old; she is “German-Kenyan”. Reinaldo Ribeiro is “queer” and “Afro-Brazilian”. Visa applications and bureaucracy shape their movements – and their identities. Who decides who they are or are allowed to be?
The ten performers play with a single material: bricks. The brick, together with the bodies that manipulate it, becomes the subject. Plunder is a practice dating back to the colonial era. For us, bricks are a symbol of reconstruction. At the Humboldt Forum, which has been engaged in coming to terms with the colonial history of ethnographic museums since its inception, visitors can experience first-hand how various artists bring decolonisation and democratisation to life.
ON MY WAY HOME is a performance, film and discussion, and uses personal stories to foster a sense of connection to decolonisation. What must be let go of so that we can build something new? We approach time in a non-linear way, offering a second and third chance (and as many as necessary) – so that new narratives and paradigms can emerge, enabling us to resist together. Join us and help build something new.
On My Way Home was developed for the Cologne Asphalt Festival 2025 at the Rautenstrauch-Joest Museum.
