After decades of armed conflict and the peace agreement of 2016, how can Colombians (re-) author their lives in order to live on? How can former guerrillas of the FARC, their families, their victims, their new rural neighbours, and society at large live together again?
In the project we used sewing, embroidery and narrative interviews to explore everyday micro-processes of reconciliation. We worked in two rural communities that now host peace signatories: Llano Grande (Dabeiba) and San José de León (Mutatá).
