Description
We visit Milena Bonilla’s studio to hear about Rosa Luxemburg and granite wrapped in amaranth, the flower that resists. Milena’s research-based practice is currently invested in epistemological colonialism and the different ways it affects organisms, language and social structures. Her studio is in Amsterdam and her website is milenabonilla.info.
“Why do we think that the past is dead? Because it’s very convenient to have it as a relic, to bring nostalgia, to bring ideological biases. It’s a sickness.” (Milena Bonilla)
“One of the most mistreated words that i have seen lately in the world is solidarity. Solidarity comes from structures of understanding of how the world operates. It’s not charity - that is what I see spread all around here. And I talk about this with a lot of rage.” (Milena Bonilla)
