What does it mean when Sámi objects and memories that have ended up in museums across Europe find their way home again? And what happens when artists and researchers use these returns as a starting point to talk about identity, power, and the future?

The concept of rematriation is about more than returning objects – it is about giving cultural heritage renewed meaning today, both emotionally and culturally, within Sámi communities.

You are warmly invited to a guided tour of the exhibition Eatnamastit, followed by a conversation with artist Outi Pieski and Dr. Eeva-Kristiina Nylander.

The conversation will offer an opportunity to reflect on questions such as:

• Who truly owns cultural heritage?
• How can the past provide new perspectives on identity today?
• And can art be a tool for shifting power structures?

The event takes place at Trondheim kunstmuseum, Bispegata.
The conversation will be held in English.
