Gruppe Schicksal oder Wahl? Thementage rund um Verwandtschaft

In the organizer's words:

We all live in relationships. This realization inspires a two-day festival at the Humboldt Forum that explores the family of choice, biological kinship and other intimate relationships. Look forward to dance performances, concerts, friendly chatbots, readings, games and curator talks in the special exhibitions on family relationships.

With: Kim de l'Horizon, Lilibeth Cuenca Rasmussen, Black Dads Germany, Suli Puschban, Li Binyuan, Ernest and Theo Thiesmeier, Raymond Liew Jin Pin and many more.

On May 1, we will explore the feeling of "oneness", including a performance by the artist duo Mwangi Hutter. Oneness celebrates people who have come together despite their very different backgrounds.

With her performance The Mitochondrial Eve , Lilibeth Cuenca Rasmussen questions the changing and multifaceted role of motherhood.

How can we build intimacy? Dancing ribbons create fleeting bonds in Raymond Liew Jin Pins When Two Flowers Meet.
