ZWARTE KLAAS

The project Zwarte Klaas (2014) is a collaboration with performance group Sjamandada / Sieger Baljon celebrating the seasons in its original forms as far as we can trace back rituals and celebrations that have being performed in the old continent of Europe. Its focus is the soft change of the dutch tradition „Sinter Klaas Feest“ that sadly bears racist connotations and discrimination. The project stands up for the empowerment of minorities in a post-colonial society.
