Wie is Tribesmovement?

Pluriversity Ywikunarin heeft een verbinding als ambassade met de Arhuaco uit Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta (verder specificeren wie). Met deze verbinding creëren ze een ruimte een doorlopende ontmoeting van verschillende gebieden, culturen en vormen van kennis en werelden.

De Arhuaco leven in de Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta in het noorden van Colombia. De Iku hebben al eeuwenlang een hechte band met dit gebied.

Ze bestuderen de omgeving daar al eeuwenlang nauwgezet en zien dat het niet goed gaat met hun omgeving en dus met de wereld. Dat is de boodschap die ze willen delen en wij helpen ze daarbij.

Met deze fundraiser draag je bij aan de doelstelling van Tribesmovement, Pluriversity Ywikunarin en de Arhoacu om hun de levende wereld te beschermen en om de verbinding met de levende wereld te eren en te herstellen.

Bio’s

LI Yuchen (1991) is a visual and performance artist

LI Yuchen (1991) is a visual and performance artist from Nanchang, China, currently living and working in Amsterdam. The work of LI Yuchen revolves around migration, diasporic experience, memory and a sense of belonging. She investigates the historical-cultural-political contexts which gear the movements of both humans and our goods, for the stories of both are intrinsically intertwined. Her approach is not through macro narratives presented in the media or institutions, but through listening to the micro narratives.

By engaging with the personal experiences and the memories they hold, she hopes to come to a more complex and nuanced understanding of realities. Through her visual and oral storytelling in the form of installations, videos and performances, LI aims to comprehend the dynamics when we encounter ‘the other’ and to explore different ways of weaving relations with the world.

In 2013, she graduated from Life Sciences in Xiamen University in China. In 2021, she graduated from ArtEZ University of Arts in Arnhem, Netherlands. Her work has been shown in various art and academic institutions in the Netherlands and abroad, such as Stedelijk Museum, Rijksakademie, CBK Zuidoost Amsterdam, Casco Art Institute Utrecht, Arnhem Museum, Utrecht University, International Institute of Social Studies The Hague, Wageningen University; as well as Beaufort Triennale Belgium, Bonn University, Kassel University Germany, Editorial Colectivo Retos Mexico and UniTierra Manizales Colombia.

Aldo Ramos (born 1986, Mexico) 

aldo ramos
Aldo Ramos (born 1986, Mexico) lives and works in Amsterdam. Determined to strengthen the protection of life, his work has emerged in the interdisciplinary space of art, ecology and social practice. After leaving behind his life and profession as a lawyer and relocating to the Netherlands in 2010, Ramos has established a connection with other people who share similar experiences, different stories but the same struggle. People who aspire to construct alternatives to the current oppressive system.

Since their first encounter in Colombia 2017, Ramos works together with Arhuacan and other communities of Abya Yala who are considered living seeds of hope in other possible worlds. These communities have barely been acknowledged but have never been absent. Instead they are firmly in defense of life in its diversity – resisting the oppression, massive destruction and genocide by the current system. Ramos is using art as a platform to promote a pluriversal rather than universal reality.

María Eufemia Arroyo Izquierdo

maría Eufemia Arroyo Izquierdo

María Eufemia Arroyo Izquierdo (2002) grew up in the deepest part of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, next to the snow-peaked mountains at the center of the Indigenous reservation where the four different cultures of the region meet. Even though she was given a western name, she was recognized as a guardian weaver of her culture and a guardian of the feminine thought, which is essential for the care of Mother Earth.

As a young mother herself, she was given the task of caring for the relation between Mother and child, where the caring for water begins. After her education she moved to the Kwarte Umuke community where, through traditional work, she looks for harmony in the defense of the Sierra Nevada region.

Seynawiku Izquierdo Torres

Seynawiku Izquierdo-Torres
Seynawiku Izquierdo Torres (1987) was born in Donachui in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta in Colombia. In 2004 he moved from the high mountains to Kwarte Umuke, where he began to work as a representative of the Kankurwa community while raising a family. Seynawiku is an apprentice training towards becoming a Mamo, a spiritual guide. In his practice he weaves chinchorros, mantas and more.

He always aims to teach younger siblings, or westerners, to ‘root the thinking’, enabling them to give importance to the caring for Mother Earth, something which corresponds to all human beings.

Mamo Arwawiku

Mamo Arwawiku
Mamo Arwawiku is the spiritual founder (or Mamo) and guide of the Kwarte Umuke community of the Iku people (also known as Arhuaco). This community is situated on the front line of the resistance between their culture and that of the ‘younger brother’ (Westerners) in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia. This is where four indigenous peoples live, who have skillfully survived the extermination attempts of the Spanish, the Capuchin missionaries, paramilitaries, the megaprojects, and all those who want to wipe out the indigenous people in order to govern as a single entity. In the struggle, mainly women have been attacked, losing their womb, their family, their language and their knowledge. That is why Mamos like Arwawiku have focused on defending their territories, like the place where he planted the seed (kankurwa) that has sprouted as a big community in the front lines of re-existence.

From a very early age, Mamo Arwawiku learned to heal and defend the territory following the spiritual teachings of his parents and grandparents. For this, it is necessary to connect his thoughts with Mother Earth, to talk to her and to take care of her in each territory. In order to heal, he learned to walk through different territories to identify where the destructive thoughts come from and to know in which part of the territory the diseases come from.

Mamo Arwawiku has traveled to various countries warning of the dangers of destroying the landscapes and showing how we are making Mother Earth sick. He has focused on reweaving the spiritual fabric between countries. If he has the opportunity to teach people to connect their thoughts with Mother Earth and heal, he does it because it is his mission. At 78 years of age in 2024, his job is to pass the knowledge on to the next generations, so that they can heal, recover their culture, their territory, their knowledge and defend life from the spirit.

Dwanimako Arroyo Izquierdo

Dwanimako Arroyo Izquierdo
Dwanimako Arroyo Izquierdo (2000) lives in Donachui in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia as a member of the Iku people. When he was young his family moved to the central zone in the Kwarte Umuke community, where he began his studies at the ethno-educative institution Imanuel Lyceum of the North. After finishing his studies in 2019, he began the process of remembering his ancestral culture. He is determined to strengthen the care for Mother Earth by protecting the territory: “Donachui is the heart of a living world where the thought is protected as the Law of Origin”.

Dwanimako is on the pursuit for the autonomy of his community, taking care of their native seeds and their ancestral agriculture practices. He works with women (Atis) and authorities of various communities on protecting Mother Earth, the thought that cares for life and gives us all food and protection. He learns by listening to the elders and follows the guidance of the Mamos (spiritual guides), who listen to Mother Earth and deliver offerings on the diverse territories. His dream is to share their story so that we all defend Mother Earth, together with the environmental defense, a healthy life and the care of love.

Tribes Movement Concept

Draag bij aan een rechtvaardige en duurzame economie! Wij kopen direct in bij de mensen zelf, zonder dat grote commerciële bedrijven ertussen komen. Zo zorgen we ervoor dat zij een eerlijk inkomen krijgen door het maken van mooie producten voor ons. Doe mee en help ons bouwen aan een betere toekomst voor iedereen!

Tribes Steun

In het kader van ons Tribes Movement Concept ontvangt elke betrokken artiest vooraf een betaling en daarbovenop een commissie van 10% van de omzet. Deze steun is van cruciaal belang. Al sinds de 16e eeuw worden de inheemse volkeren in Zuid-Amerika onderdrukt en uitgebuit, en hun culturen worden voortdurend bedreigd. Tot op de dag van vandaag wordt de inheemse bevolking in Amerika vaak nog steeds als tweederangs burgers gezien.

Hun diepgaande kennis over de natuur, Moeder Aarde – “Pacha Mama” – en het universum wordt nauwelijks erkend. Juist nu, in een tijdperk waarin de wereld veel zou kunnen leren van de inheemse filosofieën, is het belangrijker dan ooit om deze stemmen te horen.

Tribes Movement ondersteunt momenteel diverse inheemse stammen in Zuid-Amerika, waaronder de Inga’s, Kamëntsá, Wayúu, Kogi, Arhuaco’s, Wiwa en Kankamo uit Colombia, evenals de Krenak en Pataxo uit Brazilië. Onze lijst van ondersteunde gemeenschappen blijft gestaag groeien.
