On this second ‘This Teeming World‘ expedition, taking Merian’s ‘Book on Surinam Insects’ (1705) as point of departure, we will examine what the Surinamese plant world can teach us today about our Surinamese and colonial memory, history and culture. With ethnobotanist Tinde van Andel, Tropical ecologist Thiemo Heilbron, visual artist Lotte Geeven, Sabrina Lisse Venetiaan from Jursu Kultura and shaman Jurman Blackson.
