Leopoldville mourning

During her performance Leopoldville mourning, Tankwey takes the participants in a funeral procession from the Monument au Travail (Rue Claessens, 1020 Brussels) to the church of Laeken, where Belgian royalty including Leopold II is buried. Pulling at arm's length a tombstone adorned with archival photographs of Léopoldville, the public follows the artist in this funeral procession to the entrance of the church to symbolically bury the colonial city.

Performance in framework of Kinshasa (N)tóngá: Between Future and Dust
