Kukula

Kukula is the Basque Museum’s space dedicated to presenting new ways of relating with cultural heritage. A place where inherited practices, knowledge, and stories enter into dialogue with contemporary languages to generate renewed perspectives on what we have received and what we continue to create.

Heritage is understood here as a living process in which tradition and contemporaneity are mutually updated, embracing the intangible as both creation and transmission.

The first project presented, Uhinak, is based on the audiovisual essay Pegarreko Urak by Raquel Asensi and it proposes a contemporary reading of the relationships between ceramics, labour, and memory from the experience of women. A dialogue between the building’s memory, the Museum’s collection, and audiovisual language.
