This chapter engages with Walter Mignolo's concept of decoloniality, the contestation of coloniality and reframing of unilateral knowledge production, and Berna Reale's performance art exhibited at the 2015 Venice Biennale. Decoloniality or epistemic disobedience is significant, because it calls into question the basis of and the control of Eurocentric systems of thought and because it is crucial to fostering an emphasis on the knower (enunciation) rather than the known (enunciated) based on lived experience and in connection to others and their context. These objectives are important to expand the multiplicity of Western epistemology and the potential for dialogical and intercultural dialogue in art and design education
