Join us for an afternoon of creativity and reflection around the diversity of stories around our Ancestral Women, focusing on the Women also known as ‘Nyais’ – The Ancestral Mothers and an important anchor between Indonesia and The Netherlands.

What we do
We connect artists to talk about identity, sense of belonging and the impact of colonialism on our lives.
Through music, theater, film, photography and spoken word, we heal old wounds, decolonize the present and work towards a shared future.
What we have done
What we offer
Kita adalah keluarga —we are family
I find peace in all your faces
continue to mix our cultures
like a soto ayam
touching each other’s hearts
beating, beating, beating
to the rhythm of a family
kita adalah keluarga
without each other I am nothing
without history I am nothing
without your story I am nothing
Your Faces
