Welcome to Decomprose

The idea of "decomprose community" is a combination of three themes:

   1. Decompose

Decomposing is part of the process of life and rebirth. Here, we focus on ways to foster personal and community growth rooted in Sámi values and environmentalism.

   2. Prose

This is a creative space where we find narratives to describe our worlds and experiences through multimedia exploration.

   3. Deconstruct

Sometimes we have to take apart our biases, positive or negative, to become new. This is a place to engage with novel thoughts and ideas.

Decomprose is a community where artists of all ages and stages can uplift and support each other without bounds or borders.
