Crossroads

Conversation with Lena Stammarnäs, exhibition producer at the National Museums of World Culture in Gothenburg, and artist and joiker Astrid Tuorda.

On the collaborative work of describing the colonization of Sápmi in the exhibition Crossroads at the Museum of World Culture. The exhibition tells a story of encounters, power, and resistance, and of the joik as an act of resistance. The conversation addresses challenges and choices, self-representation and group representation, and the museum’s role as a state authority with Sámi collections and its colonial connections.
Moderator: Bettina Pehrsson, deputy director of Kin.

Presented in collaboration with the National Museums of World Cultures
