Oyouns Tiny House geht auf Tour!
Zwischen Ende August und Mitte Oktober wandert unser Tiny House durch verschiedene Berliner Bezirke. Für jeweils eine Woche halten wir an verschiedenen Kulturorten und -institutionen und interagieren mit dem umliegenden urbanen Raum, der Nachbarschaft und den örtlichen Partner*innen.
Euch erwartet ein umfangreiches Programm mit wiederkehrenden Workshops zu den Themen Podcasting mit Hamam Talk, Mixtaping mit Maurice Leoni-Osion und Fotografie mit Queer Analog Darkroom, sowie Pop-up Ausstellungen und Performances.

listening to the land
Im weiten Geflecht ökologischer Verzweigungen sind unsere gemeinsamen Geschichten über verschiedene geografische Gebiete hinweg eng miteinander verwoben. Sie tragen komplexe Erzählungen in sich, in denen das Echo von Widerstand und regenerativen Narrativen mitschwingt. In diesem verschlungenen Labyrinth fordern sie uns dazu auf, die uns umgebenden Beziehungen neu zu erfinden.
Das Projekt “Listening to the Land” entfaltet sich als Mittel des Transports für die Erzählungen des Widerstands und einer regenerativen Zukunft über Grenzen und Ozeane hinweg. Es umfasst kreative, alternative Methoden und Formen des revolutionären Aufbegehrens gegen die Umweltzerstörung durch anhaltende koloniale Bestrebungen. Diese interdisziplinäre Initiative, in deren Mittelpunkt queere, feministische, postkoloniale und indigene künstlerische Interventionen stehen, schafft einen Raum für gegenseitiges Lernen, in dem versteckte Perspektiven an die Oberfläche kommen und transnationale Verwandtschaft suchen.

Rongin Shagor
Endlich online! Nach Monaten des Denkens, Planens, Programmierens und Kuratierens ist www.ronginshagor.com seit dem 13.11. offiziell online. Die digitale Plattform steht im Zentrum der gleichnamigen künstlerischen Auseinandersetzung um das Gedicht “community” der Afrodeutschen Dichterin und Aktivistin May Ayim, deren Werk auch unsere Arbeit inspiriert und prägt. Ausgehend von besagtem Gedicht hat eine Reihe multidisziplinärer Künstler*innen Antworten in verschiedenen Medien formuliert, die nun auf der Website abrufbar sind. Gleichzeitig lädt die digitale Plattform dazu ein, selbst eine künstlerische Antwort zu formulieren, die sich entweder direkt auf Ayims Gedicht oder eine der bereits veröffentlichten Antworten bezieht und so zum künstlerischen Kettenbrief beiträgt.

Mightier than a Trampled Flower
Frauen* in (Nach-)Kriegszeiten, Entmystifizierung des Frau*seins und queer*feministische Allianzen
Der zweite kuratorische Schwerpunkt von Oyoun ist ein Zeugnis für Frauen* in Kriegen, gegen die marginalisierende Geschichtsschreibung. Es beleuchtet die Kämpfe von Frauen*, deren Chroniken mit der Kolonialgeschichte und der dekolonialen Bewegung verwoben sind: Frauen* in Brasilien inmitten des allgegenwärtigen Femizides, Widerstandskämpferinnen* im algerischen Unabhängigkeitskrieg und “Trostfrauen”, die Überlebenden der sexuellen Versklavung durch die kaiserliche japanische Armee.
Zahlreiche Darstellungen von Frauen* im Krieg sind symptomatisch für patriarchalisch-koloniale Unterdrückung. Mightier than a Trampled Flower dekonstruiert die Fetischisierung einer „zertrampelten Blume“- zerbrochen und fragil, aber immer noch hübsch und weich, setzt sich mit der Genderbinarität in unserer Sprache auseinander und fordert das Frau*sein in die Hände von Kämpferinnen* zurück.
Der Schwerpunkt startet im April 2022 mit dem Projekt AS* PAPANGUS von der afro-brasilianischen Künstlerin Bruna Amaro.
women* in (post-)war, demystifying woman*hood and queer-feminist alliance
The second curatorial focus of Oyoun is a witness to women* in wars and against the history-making that is neglectful of experiences of the marginalized. It sheds light on the struggles of women*, whose chronicles are entangled with colonialism and decolonial movements, such as: women* in Brazil facing the threat of pervasive femicide, women* resistance fighters in the Algerian War of Independence, and “comfort women”, the survivors of forced sexual slavery by the Imperial Japanese Army.
Numerous representations of women* in wars are symptomatic of patriarchal-colonial oppression. Mightier than a Trampled Flower deconstructs the fetishization of “a trampled flower” – broken and fragile but still pretty and soft, while tackling the gender binary embedded in our language and reclaiming woman*hood in the hands of women* fighters.
The public program launches on April 30 with the project AS* PAPANGUS by the Afro-Brazilian artist Bruna Amaro.
