Lisa Ndejuru (Rwanda), Ulla Neuerburg (Germany), and Ramona Benveniste (Israel) are creating a new multidisciplinary work linked to the examination of a collection of Rwandan stories. They are three artists of different disciplines, experiences, and backgrounds who have been coming together to engage in a process of talking, weaving, connecting, separating, looking for ways of expression, holding different ways of thinking and making, and taking inspiration from each other. They are searching for what connects them, three people, three self-identifying women, mothers, who at this point in time have come together in Tiohtià:ke with their stories, hearts and bodies. Each of them carries intergenerational burdens.

“We are the generation “after”. Our own lives were not directly touched by violence, war, and genocide, but our parents’ and grandparents’ were. While we may march together with many others today, we are not the ones who topple the statues of our past, it is the work of our children. We are asking ourselves: who are we? What are our voices? Our place?”
