The processes that culminated in the independence of the former European colonies affected disciplines that, directly or indirectly, legitimized colonial power. The New Museology movement provoked actions that brought the museum closer to the community, making it possible to include groups related to the safeguarded collections within the institutions.

Rigor Mortis - In this exhibition, the museum is turned into a horror movie setting, where the feeling of reality is distorted: logic falters, the body is shredded, inert objects become animated - life and death, dream and reality get confused. Creation & research: Renato Pera. 3D art: Caio Fazolin. Collaboration: Jye O'Sullivan and Marcos Pavão.

You are the crossroad of your memories - Born from clay and modelled in 3D, this installation is composed by a virtual room, a performance program and a digital publication. Its shape, inspired by the moringa, an object used by aboriginal peoples for storing and cooling water, is a reminder and an invitation: a reminder that without its union with natural elements, our existence would not be possible; and an invitation to play with the porosity of memory, identity and body. Concept and realization: Pedra Silva, Garu e Rodrigo Lopes.
