THE DOGS OF THE CONQUEST
DAVID SEBASTIAN LOPEZ RESTREPO
On the 12th of October, the world celebrates something with many different names; simply, it is the beginning of the longest and most systematic genocide in the history of the world. This performance was made in front of the Court of Copenhagen (København Domstol) where many public executions occured in the past. During this action, a group of migrant artists friends wrote their thoughts about colonization onto my body, while I read out loud a text about how dogs were used as a weapon of fear and annihilation against Native Americans in colonial times.
