About

DESACTA (unact /untie) is a laboratory for counter-spells against committed injustices and an inquiry into the ideology and roots of the west’s ongoing effort to desacralize Earth and its contents in pursuit of a treacherous extractivism and elemental displacement. Anchoring itself in two locations, Berlin, Germany, the seat of power and the site of the Conference, and Malafo, Guinea-Bissau powered by the force of resistance against European colonialism being one of the countries to militarily win an anti-colonial war in Africa. Using ritual and magic traditions, DESACTA re-enchants raw materials as a sonic, intellectual, performative, communal and spiritual anti-colonial caring and healing service between these two sites.
