Moving Together /Arriving Together: Decolonising Creative Partnerships Toolkit
Journey with a group of Arrivals artists as they offer creative seed explorations of what it means to embrace decolonisation within creative community
The Decolonising Creative Partnerships Toolkit was developed in collaboration with artists and organisations connected to the ALP community. Our exploration is intentional, evolutionary, and creative.
The tools found here are creative seeds, or in-process artistic works across mediums, planted to spark discourse amongst artists responding to prompts under the six themes below.
Understanding decolonisation
What are the conditions under which we balance ourselves, or reconcile the histories that have shaped us without sacrificing our own traditions and cultural values?
Clarifying collaborative pathways
What principles and wisdom can help inform cross-cultural creation processes and leadership structures?
Creating common ground
What metaphors of leadership, found in nature and in our origin stories can be applied and translated into effective and appropriate leadership structures?
Building equitable relationships
What are the systems that ensure the relationality of the ALP model of growth (growing roots before branches)?

Capacity building, support, and agency
How do we uncover this common or shared root system? How do we reroute our ways of thinking/being/doing to align with it?
Collaborative decision-making and co-creation
What are the protocols (shared understandings and tools) that need to be in place for shared decision-making and co-creation to flourish?
