Kilombo

“Kilombo-ing” to celebrate art and resilience.

A Kilombo to celebrate art and resilience.

Following a first at Espaço Alkantara in 2021, the Aurora Negra collective (Cleo Diára, Isabél Zuaa, and Nádia Yracema) convene a new Kilombo for the Alkantara Festival.

“Kilombo is a place of gathering and resistance, of nourishment, sharing and care for the community. It is a place of strength and liberation. In this second iteration, our desire is again to create a space where we can gather artists we admire and who have contributed in some way to the cultural scene, to create and celebrate art and resilience. There will be film. There will be food. There will be music. There will be performance. There will be celebration. There will be KILOMBO!"

Aurora Negra

Aurora Negra is the collective created by Cleo Diára, Isabél Zuaa and Nádia Yracema. The three of them graduated from ESTC (Lisbon School of Theatre and Cinema) and have followed a career in interpretation and creation for Theatre and Cinema, both nationally and internationally. The project was born to create a space where they could tell their stories with their own narratives, fictions, voices and bodies, celebrating their ancestry in all forms. Since 2020 they have created the shows Aurora Negra and Cosmos, and are working on their third show A Missão da Missão.
