SUMMARY:a’21: techno utopia x post-digital ignorance___10 March - 18 May\, 2021
DESCRIPTION:► a’21: techno utopia x post-digital ignorance \n► 10 MARCH - 18 MAY\, 2021 \n:: EXHIBITIONS :: PERFORMANCES :: TALKS\, WORKSHOPS & LECTURES :: & MORE :: ABOUT a’21 FESTIVAL :: \nThe past few decades have witnessed a tremendous proliferation of digital technology. References to a techno-utopia where knowledge would be available to each and all seemed to signal the possibility of positive social and cultural change while acknowledging a fundamental flaw. Digital technologies’ commitment to making knowledge accessible to all would supposedly produce a universal benefit and wellbeing which was partly realised but digital technologies did in no way result in a techno-utopia. It has become apparent that besides letting vast amounts of knowledge accessible to ever more people\, digital technologies are also powerful tools producing a peculiar kind of public ignorance\, one that seems to proliferate amidst ever multiplying information and knowledge available in today’s digitalised environment. With a’21 Festival - Post Digital Ignorance x Techno Utopia\, we aim to challenge the status quo while centring perspectives on non-human life\, queer ecology\, decolonising knowledge\, forced displacement\, and more. :: 69+ artists\, scientists and activists in 16 countries #SWANA #AFRICA #EUROPE #ASIA \n:: 13 extraordinary creatives radically collaborating within an intensive laboratory :: \nHosting hosting more than 50 events: incl. performances\, workshops\, panels\, sounds\, lectures\, exhibitions and screenings \n:: PROGRAMME 2021 ::  \nw/ amberPlatform (Turkey)\, 16 March - 18 April w/ Kounaktif (Morocco)\, 17 - 21 March w/ Sharhaban (Lebanon)\, 22 - 25 March w/ BAAB Collective (Sudan) 1 April - 15 May w/ Darağaç (Turkey)\, 2 April - 26 March w/ DAHproject (Iran)\, 3 April - 7 May  \n#NewMedia #QueerEcology #ForcedDisplacement #FutureDesign \n// Produced by: Oyoun in collaboration with amberPlatform \n// Curatorial Team: Amirali Ghasemi\, Ali Cem Doğan\, Cenkhan Aksoy\, Christoph Wachter\, Ebru Yetişkin\, Ekmel Ertan\, Hamza Chamas\, Mathias Jud\, Milad Forouzandeh\, Mohsen Hazrat\, Nina Martin\, Rajaa Shamam\, Youssef El Idrissi \n// Participants include: Eda Sütunç\, Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley\, Mary Maggic\, Rachel Uwa\, Renata Salecl\, Seloua Luste Boulbina\, Pelin Tan\, Yara Mekawei\, and many more. \n// Funded by: Capital Cultural Fund/ Berlin's Hauptstadtkulturfond

SUMMARY:a'21: The Intermingled_BAAB Collective
DESCRIPTION:The name of the exhibition is pointing over a huge success of the sit-in space during the Sudan revolution that people come together which never happened in the history of (what's call Sudan) and which shows a victory against the plan of colonialism and the post colonialism operation that's mean to suppress the unity of the Sudan peoples by cruel wars and racism lead to un talk able slavery and very ugly class difference. \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/AR) :: \nHere we joined our killer\, our hearts hunted a paid bullet. Here we conquered our fear\, shit and differences. Here a zgrudah (ululation) from a revolutionist mixed with the cheerful machine gun that killed a child\, that freedom whispered in his eager ears a false hope. Here the bloods of martyrs intermingled with a saxophonist soldier whose soul escaped the shame. Here we met with little's\, elders\, bosses and poor's. Here we encountered with smiles and assassins. Here we waited for Atbara artillery*. Here the fear\, joy\, tiredness\, devotion\, love and freedom. Here they killed youths but they couldn't kill their dreams. Here we brought earth and heaven together in a portrait that even the ancient gods cannot imagine . * It is the most powerful & reputed unit in the Sudan army\, the revolutionists waited its interference for long\, but to no avail & eventually it turned into a joke. \n► Click "going" on Facebook to stay up to date.\n► Join the event through vimeo. \n:: LINKS :: \n► BAAB Collective \nInstagram\nYoutube\nFacebook\nTwitter \nParticipants: \n► Rayan Elhadi Elsayed Hima\nInstagram \n► Nour Yahya Hamza Yahya\nInstagram \nFacebook \n► Bakry Mohamed Salih \nFacebook \n► Elsadig Mohmmed Ahmed \nInstagram \n► Mohamed Salah Elmur \nInstagram\nFacebook \n► Mustafa Elsiddeg Mustafa Gasemlbari:\nInstagram\nFacebook\nYoutube \n\n► Marwan Osman \n  \n* This event is part of Oyoun's a’21 Festival - Post Digital Ignorance x Techno Utopia aiming to challenge the status quo while centering perspectives on non-human life\, queer ecology\, decolonising knowledge\, forced displacement\, and more.The project was financed by Berlin’s Hauptstadtkulturfonds. \nProduced by: Oyoun in collaboration with amberPlatform \nCuratorial Team: Amirali Ghasemi\, Ali Cem Doğan\, Cenkhan Aksoy\, Christoph Wachter\, Ebru Yetişkin\, Ekmel Ertan\, Hamza Chamas\, Mathias Jud\, Milad Forouzandeh\, Mohsen Hazrat\, Nina Martin\, Rajaa Shamam\, Youssef El Idrissi Participants include: Eda Sütunç\, Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley\, Mary Maggic\, Rachel Uwa\, Renata Salecl\, Seloua Luste Boulbina\, Pelin Tan\, Yara Mekawei\, and many more. \nFunded by: Capital Cultural Fund \n► For media and press inquiries\, please email hallo@oyoun.de

SUMMARY:a'21: The new liberalism crises and the emergence of mediatised subjectivity_BAAB Collective
DESCRIPTION:►a'21: The new liberalism crises and the emergence of mediatised subjectivity_BAAB Collective \nDuring in the last past decade Sudanese get harm by the US sanctions that affect the whole state and now we are shifting to neoliberal state supporting by US politics and come the question how the new system work and exactly when come to personal information and rights. \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/AR) :: \nIn previous eras it often appeared that in relation to the media political action was stifled primarily by the fact that people didn't have sufficient access to information or the\nmeans to communicate and express their own views. Indeed today repressive governments attempt to limit access to websites\, close down blogs and Facebook pages\, attack journalists\, and generally block access to information. Countering such repression is certainly an important battle\, and we have repeatedly witnessed how media networks and access to them eventually and inevitably overflow. All such barriers\, thwarting attempts to close and silence.\nToday's mediatised subjects suffer from the opposite problem\, stifled by a surplus of information\, communication\, and expression. "The problem is no longer getting people to express themselves\," Gilles Deleuze explains\, "but providing little gaps of solitude and silence in which they might eventually find something to say. Repressive forces don't stop people from expressing themselves\, but rather\, force them to express themselves. What a relief to have nothing to say\, the right to say nothing\, because only then is there a chance of framing the rare\, and ever rarer\, the thing that might be worth saying." The problem of surplus\, however\, is not really homologous to the problem of lack\, and it is not even a matter of quantity. \n► Click "going" on Facebook to stay up to date.\n► Join the event through vimeo.  \n:: LINKS :: \n► Baab Collective \nInstagram\nYoutube\nFacebook\nTwitter \nParticipants: \n►Rayan Elhadi Elsayed Hima: performance artist @rayisherelol \n►Nour Yahya Hamza Yahya: performance artist @nwara_yahya facebook.com/noor.yahya.319 \n►Bakry Mohamed Salih\nFacebook \n►Elsadig Mohmmed Ahmed\nInstagram \n►Mohamed Salah Elmur\nInstagram \nFacebook \n►Mustafa Elsiddeg Mustafa Gasemlbari\nFacebook\nInstagram\nYoutube \n►Osman \n* This event is part of Oyoun's a’21 Festival - Post Digital Ignorance x Techno Utopia aiming to challenge the status quo while centring perspectives on non-human life\, queer ecology\, decolonising knowledge\, forced displacement\, and more.The project was financed by Berlin’s Hauptstadtkulturfonds. \nProduced by: Oyoun in collaboration with amberPlatform\nCuratorial Team: Amirali Ghasemi\, Ali Cem Doğan\, Cenkhan Aksoy\, Christoph Wachter\, Ebru Yetişkin\, Ekmel Ertan\, Hamza Chamas\, Mathias Jud\, Milad Forouzandeh\, Mohsen Hazrat\, Nina Martin\, Rajaa Shamam\, Youssef El Idrissi\nParticipants include: Eda Sütunç\, Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley\, Mary Maggic\, Rachel Uwa\, Renata Salecl\, Seloua Luste Boulbina\, Pelin Tan\, Yara Mekawei\, and many more.\nFunded by: Capital Cultural Fund \n► For media and press inquiries\, please email hallo@oyoun.de

SUMMARY:EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL
DESCRIPTION:[English below] \nEMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL - AUF DEN SPUREN VERKÖRPERTER ERINNERUNGEN \n♦️♦️♦️ Embodied Arts Festival Guide ♦️♦️♦️ \nWas verkörpern unsere Körper? Welche Erinnerungen können uns unsere Körper erzählen? - über uns selbst\, unsere Vergangenheit und unsere Zukunft? Wir laden euch ein\, mit uns diesen und vielen weiteren Fragen während des EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL künstlerisch nachzugehen. Wir haben über 20 Performances\, Filmvorführungen\, Diskussionen und interaktive Interventionen für euch geplant. \nMit den Mitteln der Kunst gehen wir auf die Suche nach Antworten auf Fragen wie: Wie können wir Traumata kollektiv heilen? Wie können sich unsere Körper aus einem Bündel sozialer Zwänge in eine Manifestation blühenden Lebens verwandeln? Wie brechen wir Tabus über Menstruation\, über Gendernormen\, über Sexualität(en)\, über Tod und Trauer? Woher kommt Hass\, wie wirkt sich Hass aus und welcher Weg führt vom Hassenden zum Gehassten? \nKurator*innen\, Künstler*innen und Kulturschaffende haben sich im Rahmen von Oyouns erstem kuratorischen Schwerpunkt - EMBODIED TEMPORALITIES - mit Identitäten\, Zugehörigkeit und verkörperten Erinnerungen aus diasporischen\, dekolonialen und queeren Perspektiven auseinandergesetzt. Dies war ein 8-monatiges Forschungs-\, Archivierungs-\, Ausstellungs- und Performance-Projekt\, an dem über 40 Menschen beteiligt waren. Die Ergebnisse\, Begegnungen und Fragen\, die sich aus den Projekten ergeben haben\, werden während des EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL vom 8. bis 18. April präsentiert und gefeiert.  \nSeid dabei ab dem 8. April und nehmt teil an Live-Streams\, Diskussionen und interaktiven Gesprächen >>> siehe Programm hier. \nIhr seid eingeladen\, die ausgestellten Werke offline zu erleben: hier kannst du ein Zeitfenster auswählen und buchen. \n  \n \nEMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL - TRACING THE MEMORIES OUR BODIES HOLD \n♦️♦️♦️ Embodied Arts Festival Guide ♦️♦️♦️  \nWhat memories do our bodies hold? What can our bodies tell us about ourselves\, our pasts and our futures? We invite you to join us for an artistic exploration of these and many other questions during the EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL. We have 20+ performances\, film screenings\, discussions\, and interactive interventions planned for you. \nUsing art as a tool we go in search of answers to questions such as: How do we break taboos about menstruation\, about gender norms\, about sexualities\, about death and mourning? How can we collectively heal trauma? How can our bodies transform from an object that is a carrier of social constraints into a manifestation of thriving\, living bodies? Where does hate come from\, how does it affect us\, and what path does it take from hater to hated? \nCurators\, artists and cultural practitioners have been exploring identities\, belonging and embodied memories through diasporic\, decolonial and queer perspectives as part of Oyoun’s first curatorial focus: EMBODIED TEMPORALITIES. This has been an 8-month research\, archiving\, exhibition and performance project involving 40+ people. The outcomes\, encounters and queries which have come out of the projects will be presented and celebrated during the EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL from 8th - 18th April.  \nJoin us from the 8th April onwards for our digital programme of releases\, live streams and interactive talks that we have planned for you >>> see all event here. \nFrom the 9th - 18th April you can book a time slot to view and experience the exhibited works in person at Oyoun.

SUMMARY:Black Post Box
DESCRIPTION:[deutsch unten] \nCo-curators of the BLACK POST BOX\, Gugulethu Duma and Dylan Greene\, explore racial and cultural melancholy by centralizing the work of Saidiyah Hartman who asks\, "...what if depression could be traced to histories of colonialism\, genocide\, slavery\, exclusion\, everyday segregation\, and isolation that haunt all of our lives\, rather than to biochemical imbalances? How can we feel\, deal and heal while the experiences of loss and alienation persist? The silent victims are countless\, and their names remain unrecorded. The body carries this reality and functions. Day in and day out. The body functions in a dysfunctional state\, we can hear\, but do we listen? We can look\, but do we observe?"  \nIn Anne Anlin Cheng's seminal work\, The Melancholy of Race: Psychoanalysis\, Assimilation\, and Hidden Grief\, melancholy is defined as\, "a transformation from grief to grievance". It's a state of being explored as an entangled relationship to loss where grief becomes legislated. Said another way\, mourning passes whereas melancholy\, an apparently endless condition\, continues through the generations as it becomes the formation of identity and ego and diaspora themselves. As Ralph Ellison writes in Invisible Man "I am invisible...like the bodiless heads you see sometimes in circus sideshows\, it is as though I have been surrounded by mirrors of hard\, distorting glass. When they approach me they see only my surroundings\, themselves\, or figments of their imagination." Asking\, within the framework of culture and the perception of it\, "who distorts whom?" In this way\, melancholia asks the self into cycles of reflexivity.  \nUntil the 19th century\, Western science and medicine saw "melancholia" as both a physical and mental symptomatic condition. The melancholic were classified by a perceived common cause: an excess of black bile. At times\, all forms of mental illness were associated with the concept. Some were deemed to be caused by a combination of excess black bile and a disorder of one of the other humors. As global societies begin to explore "generational trauma/transfer" and the lineage of hauntings turn to anxieties and physical conditions\, we posit African and Asian sciences and medicines which long pre-date the white-bile of Western opinion. \nIn their contribution to Oyoun’s Embodied Arts Festival\, Gugulethu Duma's curatorial focus invites contemplations on melancholia\, psycho-spiritual instability\, and the colour Black: Black as silence; black as emptiness; black as the unknown; black as the shadow; black as the night\, as we move with earth still in a global lockdown. Dylan 'HUNTERCHEE' Greene's curatorial focus invites contemplations on immigration\, the stasis within enslaving forms of transit\, and cultural homelessness. \nThe BLACK POST BOX invites individuals to spend 20 minutes alone\, listening and seeing compositions that seek to inspire conversation with the unrecorded self; observation of the silenced self; and recollection of forgotten selves. We invite our audience to write down reflections and submit them to our post box after engaging with the installation. They will be mailed through flame to the ancestors upon the closing of the installation. \nA diasporic rhythm called 'displacement' is another way of describing home. Echos of a global feeling; a mid-air suspension pleading\, "is there grounding?" \nThe Black Post Box will be at Oyoun for both the opening and closing ceremony of the EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL. \nFrom 9th-18th April\, the Black Post Box will be stationed where May Ayim Ufer meets Oberbaumstraße in Kreuzberg. It will be open every day between 12:00 - 18:00 - book your time slot to visit here. \n  \nAbout the contributors\nGugulethu Duma\, also known as Dumama\, is an artist\, performer and sonic researcher\, born in South Africa. Her transdisciplinary practice involves consciously deconstructing and critiquing archaic modes of representation of (Southern) African sonic and performance culture. Her interests intersect as practice based performance research\, and interdisciplinary\, collaborative bodies of work centred around political-poetic imaginations. > dumamamusic.com \nDylan "HUNTERCHEE" Greene is an Asian American drummer\, multi-instrumentalist\, composer\, and producer who collaborates deeply with dance and visual media. In 2019\, he was commissioned by the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem\, MA to focus on Ming Dynasty naval exploration as well as Chinese immigration to America. He is currently making work that explores perception and narrative through the experiences of mild traumatic brain injury and lenses of Eastern philosophy. Greene performed with Grammy nominated artists\, A Far Cry Chamber Orchestra and countertenor Anthony Roth Costanzo\, Bessie Award-winning choreographers\, Rebecca Lazier and Christopher Williams\, MacArthur Fellowship composer\, Matt Aucoin\, and the Peabody Award winning podcast\, Radiolab. Dylan has been an artist in residency at Avaloch\, a fellow at Mass MOCA with Bang On a CAN\, and a Onebeat alumni\, an initiative of Found Sound Nation supported by the U.S. Department of State. He has taught at Carnegie Hall and now teaches a trauma conscious music methodology with Music Beyond Measure. HUNTERCHEE is an ambassador for Out Of Time Embassy\, a Berlin-based collective. > hunterchee.com \nAyanda Duma is a video and film artist whose main objective is the re-representation of the marginalised people of South Africa. Through a subversive and an imaginative lens\, her work encompasses an inquiry into the ways the past informs the present\, reflecting on how this affects the representation of the South African & global youth. Ayanda Duma’s film work embodies themes such as identity\, sexuality\, interpersonal relationships and politics within slice of life narratives that celebrate the magic in the mundane. She is an emerging female-identifying filmmaker from East London\, currently based in Cape Town. Ever the curious artist\, her creative inclinations\, beginning in primary school\, have spanned many years covering a range from classical piano\, music composition\, modelling\, performance and visual storytelling in the forms of portrait photography and filmmaking. Her filmmaking journey began with Film School in 2016 and by 2017 my short film\, Booked\, was shortlisted for The Horizon Award with The Creative Mind Group. This accolade earned me an invitation and internship at the Cannes Film Festival 2018.  \n  \nEMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL\nCurators\, artists and cultural practitioners have been exploring identities\, belonging and embodied memories through diasporic\, decolonial and queer perspectives as part of Oyoun’s first curatorial focus: EMBODIED TEMPORALITIES.

View all events here. \n  \n--- \nDie Co-Kurator*innen der BLACK POST BOX\, Gugulethu Duma und Dylan Greene\, erforschen Melancholie bezogen auf Race und Kultur auf der Basis der Arbeiten von Saidiyah Hartman\, die fragt: "...was wäre\, wenn Depressionen auf die Geschichte des Kolonialismus\, von Völkermord\, Sklaverei\, Ausgrenzung\, alltäglicher Segregation und Isolation zurückgeführt werden könnten\, die unser aller Leben heimsuchen\, und eben nicht (nur) auf ein jeweiliges biochemisches Ungleichgewicht? Wie können wir fühlen\, fortleben und heilen\, während die Erfahrungen von Verlust und Entfremdung fortbestehen? Die stummen Opfer sind ohne Zahl\, und ihre Namen bleiben unverzeichnet. Der Körper trägt diese Realität und funktioniert - Tag ein\, Tag aus. Der Körper funktioniert in einem dysfunktionalen Zustand\, wir können hören\, aber hören wir auch wirklich zu? Wir können schauen\, aber beobachten wir auch wirklich?" \nIn Anne Anlin Chengs bahnbrechendem Werk The Melancholy of Race: Psychoanalysis\, Assimilation\, and Hidden Grief wird Melancholie definiert als "eine Transformation von Trauer zu Kummer". Melancholie ist ein Seinszustand\, der sich als durch Verlusterfahrungen gefesselt erweist\, in dem Kummer Gesetz ist. Anders ausgedrückt: Trauer vergeht\, während Melancholie als anscheinend endloser Zustand über Generationen hinweg fortbesteht\, indem die Basis der Identität\, des jeweiligen Ich\, ja der ganzen Diaspora bildet. Wie Ralph Ellison in Invisible Man schreibt: "Ich bin unsichtbar ... wie die körperlosen Köpfe\, die man manchmal in Zirkusprogrammen sieht; es ist\, als wäre ich von Spiegeln aus hartem\, verzerrendem Glas umgeben. Wenn sie sich mir nähern\, sehen sie nur meine Umgebung\, sich selbst oder Ausgeburten ihrer Phantasie." Im Rahmen von Kultur und deren Wahrnehmung fragt man sich: "Wer verzerrt wen?" Auf diese Weise lockt die Melancholie das Selbst einen ewigen Kreislauf der Selbstbespiegelung. \nBis ins 19. Jahrhundert nahm man in Europa an\, dass "Melancholie" sowohl körperliche als auch psychische Symptomen habe. Die melancholischen Zustände würden sich durch ein Übermaß an "schwarzer Galle" auszeichnen. Zeitweise wurden alle Formen von Geisteskrankheit mit diesem Konzept in Verbindung gebracht\, wobei man bei einigen davon ausging\, dass sie durch eine Kombination von überschüssiger schwarzer Galle mit einer Störung eines der anderen Körpersäfte verursacht würden. Während die globalen Gesellschaften allmählich damit anfangen\, generationsübergreifende Traumata und deren Übertragung zu erforschen und Spuk und Besessenheit zu Angstvorstellungen und somatischen Zustände umgedeutet werden\, berufen wir uns auf afrikanische und asiatische wissenschaftliche und medizinische Traditionen\, die der weißen galle westlicher Vorstellungen weit vorausgehen. \nDer Fokus von Gugulethu Dumas kuratorischen Beiträgen zum Embodied Arts Festival lädt zum Nachdenken über Melancholie\, über psycho-spirituelle Instabilität und über die Farbe Schwarz ein. Schwarz als: Stille; schwarz als: Leere; schwarz als: das Unbekannte; schwarz als: der Schatten; schwarz als: die Nacht - während wir alle uns immer noch in einem globalen Lockdown befinden. Dylan 'HUNTERCHEE' Greene wiederum regt uns zum Nachdenken über Immigration an\, über den durch versklavende Formen des Übergangs verursachten Stillstand\, und über kulturelle Heimatlosigkeit. \nDie BLACK POST BOX bietet uns die Möglichkeit\, 20 Minuten allein zu sein und während dessen Kompositionen zu hören und zu sehen\, die zu Gesprächen mit dem nicht ausdefinierten Selbst anregen sollen\, zur Beobachtung des zum Schweigen gebrachten Selbst und zur Erinnerung an vergessene Formen des Selbst. Wir laden unser Publikum ein\, ihre Reflexionen aufzuschreiben und sie in unseren Briefkasten zu werfen\, nachdem sie sich mit der Installation beschäftigt haben. Sie werden nach Beendigung der Installation mittels Feuer den Ahnen geschickt. \nDer diasporische Rhythmus namens 'Vertreibung'\, ist eine andere Art\, Heimat zu beschreiben.

Auf subversive\, phantasievolle Weise untersucht sie\, wie die Vergangenheit die Gegenwart beeinflusst\, und reflektiert dabei\, wie dies die Darstellung der südafrikanischen und globalen Jugend beeinflusst. Ayanda Dumas Filmarbeit konzentriert sich auf Themen wie Identität\, Sexualität\, zwischenmenschliche Beziehungen und Politik innerhalb von Slice-of-Life-Erzählungen\, die die Magie im Alltäglichen feiern. Sie war schon immer eine neugierige Künstlerin\, und ihre kreativen Neigungen\, die sie bereits in der Grundschule entdeckte\, umfassten ein Spektrum von klassischem Klavier\, Musikkomposition\, Modellieren und Performance bis hin zu visuellem Geschichtenerzählen in Form von Portraitfotografie und Filmemachen. Ihre Reise als Filmemacherin begann 2016 mit der Filmschule und schon 2017 stand ihr Kurzfilm Booked auf der Shortlist für den Horizon Award der Creative Mind Group. Diese Auszeichnung brachte ihr eine Einladung und ein Praktikum bei den Filmfestspielen in Cannes 2018 ein. \nEMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL \nKurator*innen\, Künstler*innen und Kulturschaffende haben sich im Rahmen von Oyouns erstem kuratorischen Schwerpunkt - EMBODIED TEMPORALITIES - mit Identitäten\, Zugehörigkeit und verkörperten Erinnerungen aus diasporischen\, dekolonialen und queeren Perspektiven auseinandergesetzt.

SUMMARY:Ascension – Intimate Bodies Forbidden Stories
DESCRIPTION:Ascension is a theatre play -  an outcome of a durational project about gender\, femininity and menstruation. The project engaged participants with a community debate in order to reflect on gender equality and social change. The project explored menstruation\, taboos\, and identity from all potential directions such as historical\, political\, embodied\, cultural\, religious\, social\, health\, and artistic concerns. \nParticipants took part in various online workshops dealing with femininity and pain\, which lead us to a final outcome of a theatre play which we will present to you during the EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL at Oyoun.  \nThe workshops/rehearsals started in January providing a safe space to communicate femininity\, pain\, therapy\, and collective engagement and discussions with other women. Throughout the project\, the participants had the opportunity to engage with presentations and online conferences/debates about gender issues and taboos. The project aimed at building a community debate around those taboos and forbidden corners of the female body. \nThe play will be followed by a discussion with the director and the participants. We will follow all the emotional\, physical and artistic development throughout the project: from the beginning till end. \nAscension was initiated and led by Dr. Maiada Aboud\, whose work deals with ways that social and religious structures interconnect and influence the individual. She attempts to connect the social-cultural analysis to the individual‘s experience by way of using performance and relating it to cultural and social life.  \nProject participants: Antonia Führ\, Christina Gabriela Galli\, Maria Trinks and Uli Pilwax \n  \nThis event will be streamed on Oyoun's Vimeo\, YouTube and Facebook channels. \n--- \nEMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL\nCurators\, artists and cultural practitioners have been exploring identities\, belonging and embodied memories through diasporic\, decolonial and queer perspectives as part of Oyoun’s first curatorial focus: EMBODIED TEMPORALITIES. The outcomes\, encounters and queries will be presented and celebrated during the EMBODIED ARTS FESTIVAL from 8th - 18th April. View all events here.
