Artists @celiatupinamba and @olinda_tupinamba turn encounters with archives, collections and institutional histories into embodied artistic and political interventions.
Last Friday, these artists and @ponte.projects joined forces with @uniofstandrews @edinburghuniversity and @imhs.standrews to discuss disrupting the colonial archive, as well as Ponte facilitating an encounter in the prints and drawings room of the @britishmuseum
Glicéria spoke about how the Tupinambá mantles are a continuation of Tupinambá territory in Europe, and Olinda spoke about how Indigenous cinema, art and photography show the diversity of Indigenous peoples on their own terms.
This conversation takes on particular relevance as Brazil goes to the polls tomorrow. As Olinda explains, a far-right government would put hard-won Indigenous rights at risk, with consequences for territories, communities and cultural practices.
Many thanks to organisers @emmalathamphillips @jamillepinheirodias @bbrulon @sasnews and those who joined us at Edinburgh Futures Institute.

Last week, @ponte.projects and @thegardencinema held: Beyond the Amazon: Indigenous Cinema from Brazil’s Other Biomes. Brazil is home to 391 Indigenous peoples across six biomes, yet Indigenous Brazil is still often seen as synonymous with the Amazon alone.
We screened four shorts from the Atlantic Forest and the Cerrado. In Thutalinãnsu, @helenacorezomae and @suyani_terena show how strengthening a women’s collective can strengthen a territory. In Aguyjevete Avaxi’i, @kerexu_martim follows the return of sacred Guarani maize to land decimated by eucalyptus. Two poignant shorts by young Tupinambá filmmakers completed the programme: Mango with Salt, from Serra do Padeiro village, and The Harvest, from Tukum village.
The programme championed women Indigenous filmmakers from @redekatahirine and made clear that for Indigenous cinema, film, territory and culture are inseparable.
@olinda_tupinamba and @celiatupinamba joined a Q&A chaired by @caromoliveira, with live translation by Prof. Lúcia Sá. Thanks to organisers @emmalathamphillips, @jamillepinheirodias @ablakand and everyone who joined. 🌱

Last week, we welcomed @celiatupinamba and @olinda_tupinamba to Central Saint Martins for a day of creative exchange.
In the morning, we joined first-year MArch students from the Unearthing studio for Reclaiming Ground: Territory as Creative Practice. Students shared sound maps of places tied to their own histories, from the marshlands of southern Iraq to Cox’s Bazar, a coastal town in Bangladesh. Glicéria and Olinda responded with stories of retomada, flooded territories, mangroves and memory mapping.
In the evening, they shared their creative practice with a full room. Glicéria spoke about the Tupinambá feather mantles held in European museums. For her, treating them as objects strips away their agency; restitution is instead a living practice. Olinda talked about how her performance places her body as a territory where culture and political agency meet.

Join us in Edinburgh on Friday 16 October for a conversation with @celiatupinamba and @olinda_tupinamba — DISRUPTING THE COLONIAL ARCHIVE.
Both artists turn encounters with archives, collections and institutional histories into artistic and political interventions. Their work opens space for Indigenous self-representation and for new relationships between institutions and the peoples whose histories and heritage they hold.
After last night’s news, we see this as a moment to gather ourselves and continue building these bridges for better futures.
Presented with @uniofstandrews and @edinburghuniversity @imhs.standrews — Chaired by @jamillepinheirodias and @bbrulon — organised w @ponte.projects @emmalathamphillips
🗓 Fri 16 Oct, 3.15–5.15pm
📍 Edinburgh Futures Institute, Room 1.55

In the global imagination, Indigenous Brazil is synonymous with the Amazon. But Brazil is home to more than 1.7 million Indigenous people across 391 peoples, 295 languages and six biomes.
Join us for our second event – a special screening at @thegardencinema Wed 14th Oct - bringing together four shorts from Indigenous filmmakers from two of Brazil’s other climate-crucial biomes: the Atlantic Forest and the Cerrado.
The screening is followed by a Q&A with internationally renowned Indigenous filmmaker @olinda_tupinamba and artist @celiatupinamba - chaired by @jamillepinheirodias (School of Advanced Study, University of London) and @caromoliveira (Bournemouth University). Live translation by @luciasa6154 (University of Manchester).

Two of Brazil’s leading Indigenous artists – Glicéria Tupinambá and Olinda Tupinambá – are coming to London in October for two special events!
First up, join us for a talk at Central Saint Martins on Tuesday 13th October – a rare chance to hear these creatives discuss how their work unites art, ancestral knowledge, and environmental stewardship to resist colonial structures. Followed by a Q&A chaired by @jamillepinheirodias (University of London, School of Advanced Study) and @catalina_mejia_moreno (CSM)
@olinda_tupinamba is a performance artist and filmmaker who uses her body as a living site where culture, territory and political agency converge, transmuting into entities like Kaapora – a forest-protecting spirit. @celiatupinamba is an artist and researcher whose work with European museums and Tupinambá feather mantles reimagines restitution as a living cultural practice. Glicéria and Olinda both represented Brazil at the 60th Venice Biennale (2024).
📍 CSM, Granary Square | 🗓️ Tue 13 Oct | 🕠 5.30–7pm
Free & open to all — link in bio or comment EVENT for link sent to you.

o futuro do cinema é indígena
arte criada para celebrar a juventude Tupinambá e os futuros caminhos do cinema
ao longo do oficinas do projeto Educação Ambiental e Cinema na Mata Atlântica, distribuímos câmeras analógicas para que os jovens pudessem registrar o processo a partir de seu próprio olhar. com essas imagens, criamos um pôster e cópias impressas para cada jovem levar para casa como lembrança do trabalho realizado e inspiração para seguir criando.

This Earth Day, we ask what visions emerge when Indigenous youth hold the camera and shape their own storytelling.
Our team’s second week of filmmaking and environmental education workshops took place in the Tupinambá village of Tukum. Embedded between the ocean and within the Atlantic Forest.
In the film The Harvest, the youth chose to weave in the Kaapora – a living entity of the Tupinambá cosmology; a protective presence that maintains the balance between living beings. It’s through her voice that the forest can give its warning, communicating in a way humans can not.
Here, art, spirituality, the daily expression of Indigenous lives and environmental education blur into one.
Fiction screenwriting, directing and sound workshops were led by @kar.ka.ra
Cinematography, camera operations and editing workshops were led by @nataliatupi_
Art direction workshops were led by @zielkarapoto
Project co-ordinators were @olinda_tupinamba and @jamillepinheirodias
We are grateful for the partnership and friendship of the Tukum village, in the Tupinambá de Olivença Indigenous Territory, especially @caciqueramontuoinamba and @nadiaakawa, the Tupinambá de Olivença Indigenous State School, @agenciadenoticias_ceito, teacher Anthony Barbosa, and all the students.
The workshops took place as part of the British Academy-funded project Environmental Education and Film in the Atlantic Forest: Eco-Activism Through Indigenous Perspectives, developed through a partnership between the School of Advanced Study, University of London, and @festival.kaapora

What happens when Indigenous youth take control of the camera and shape their own narrative?
(🇧🇷 Tradução para o português no primeiro comentário)
From 9–13 March, our team had the privilege of delivering our first filmmaking and environmental education workshop in the Tupinambá village of Serra do Padeiro, in the heart of Brazil’s beautiful Atlantic Forest.
Working in close friendship with the local school @ceitsp, producer @jessicatupinamba15 and leader @celiatupinamba - we provided a week of hands-on filmmaking training for 24 remarkable young Indigenous students.
Fiction screenwriting, directing and sound workshops were led by @kar.ka.ra — cinematography, camera operations and editing workshops were led by @nataliatupi_ and art direction by @zielkarapoto
These workshops insisted that fiction can be a powerful mode of thought, memory, and relation. The energy, creativity, joy and imagination shown by the youth were truly inspiring, resulting in the collectively created short film Mango with Salt.
This project is a collaborative partnership between @sasnews @unioflondon and the Kaapora Indigenous and Environmental Film Festival @festival.kaapora — funded by @thebritishacademy and co-led by @jamillepinheirodias and @olinda_tupinamba
In contexts where so many histories have been erased or mediated by others, the act of making and keeping one’s own images takes on particular weight. Cinema becomes a field of future-making.
A behind-the-scenes documentary on the process by @vjselene coming soon.
