ABSTRACT
In this chapter, the authors analyse their work at the Sibundoy Museum (Sibundoy, Colombia), showing how their curatorial work challenges western and colonial principles. Even though there have existed some subversive museological practices in Latin America and around the world, the dominant paradigm persists. The concept of decolonisation alludes to violent and symbolic invasion processes, epistemological and/or material, which seek to structure humanity in all its orders of existence, social relationships, symbols and thought. The research-action project has allowed the reader to imagine a decolonised museum, releasing its reflexive potential by visualising it as a space in constant transformation. The museum must be ambitious in the creation of its exhibits without imposing itself. Its curators have to create change and act as mediators between the public and the space.
