I recently had the chance to be interviewed by El Punt Avui for an article about the (Tr)African(t)s project. It was a valuable opportunity to have an open and down-to-earth conversation about the work we’ve been doing, the challenges we’ve encountered, and the importance of questioning the legacy of colonial collections.
In the interview, we talked about the need to investigate the provenance of certain objects, the ethical issues around restitution, and the fundamental right of communities to access and engage with their own history.

Thanks to journalist Carina Filella for the thoughtful exchange, and to El Punt Avui for opening up space for these necessary conversations.
