ROSINE NSIMIRE & ALESSANDRO MUSETTA DRC

Agathe, the matriarch above the water is a mixed-media digital publication documenting the experiences of artisanal fisherwomen from Lake Kivu. In Rosine & Alessandro’s own words “With our project we listen to and artfully give back [Agathe’s] memory and knowledge, recognising the role of all the fisherwomen and matriarchs…as custodians of the waters and lands…We expect this organised collection of materials to propagate the idea that socio-ecological change must be built through the rehabilitation of traditional ecological knowledge foundations.”
