As part of the implementation of the Brussels government's action plan "Towards the decolonisation of public space", Urban commissioned Traumnovelle to design an installation in front of the Monument to the Belgian pioneers in Congo in Cinquantenaire Park. Curator Laurent Mbaah has been commissioned to activate the installation. They invite you to a discussion on coloniality in public space.
