FOREST NOTEBOOKS LAUNCH OF THE ECHO-LOGIES SERIES

We are proud to present Forest Notebooks by Mario Lewis, the first publication of the ‘Black Echologies’ series, an ongoing collaborative project between Chimurenga and Nyabinghi Lab, a Berlin based independent arts collective.

The ‘Black Echologies’ series challenges mainstream ecological discourse—its coloniality and exclusion of indigenous knowledge. Forest Notebooks brings together a (mostly) unfiltered interpretation of Lewis’ year-long journey working in the forests of Trinidad through striking illustrations and elementary notes.

Join us to celebrate the launch on May 8 via panafricanspacestation.org streaming live from Haus der Kulturen der Welt (HKW), Berlin where Chimurenga will be in conversation with Nyabinghi Lab, Mario Lewis and forthcoming contributor Moses Mars.

Thursday, 08 May 2025 from 7pm
