Toro (assistant curator outreach\, Brücke Museum)\n\nHow can textiles challenge colonial hierarchies of value? In this talk\, the artist Percy Nii Nortey and the c urator Suy Lan Hopmann\, reflect on textiles as both artistic medium and s ite of labour\, memory\, and embodied knowledge. In Nortey’s practice\, fa bric carries the traces of daily work. By collaborating with workers in Gh ana\, he transforms stained cloth into a material archive of proletarian l abour. The discussion focuses on the Break from Reality exhibition at the Nikolaikirche in Berlin\, which was produced as part of the 2024 Dekolonia le Artist Residency\, organised by Dekoloniale and Stadtmuseum Berlin. It also considers the artist's broader artistic practice\, exploring its enga gement with labour\, visibility and value. It considers how recognition is shaped and whose labour remains unseen.\n\nPercy Nii Nortey is a multidis ciplinary artist born and based in Kumasi\, Ghana. His practice explores t hemes of identity\, materiality\, decolonization\, memory\, and labor\, bl urring the boundaries between installation\, performative objects\, and mo ving sculptures. Deeply rooted in his personal history and the socio-econo mic conditions of Ghana\, Nortey’s work aims to decolonize minds\, empower Black communities\, and reclaim agency over their narratives. \n\nSuy Lan Hopmann is a program curator at the Stiftung Stadtmuseum Berlin. She work s on the topics of colonialism and coloniality\, racism and migration as w ell as gender and queer. Previously\, she has been responsible for Hamburg ’s decolonization strategies at the city’s Department of Media and Culture . As curator for special projects and diversity at the Museum am Rothenbau m – Kulturen und Künste der Welt (MARKK)\, she curated the exhibition “Hey Hamburg\, do you know Duala Manga Bell?” on German-Cameroonian colonial h istory.\n\nXimena Gutiérrez Toro is an artist and assistant curator in the Outreach Department of the Brücke-Museum in Berlin.\n\n \nThis event will be held in English. We are committed to respectful interaction. Discrimin atory behavior has no place at our events.
