Post 1. Emigration to the Future – 7. Aug, 12:00
Hallo zusammen! Seva and I met a year ago during the emigration. I was involved in a komisch accident when I broke another artist’s Kunstwerk during the finissage of an Ausstellung called ‘Spit on H*tler's Grave.’ He met me at my uni’s Mensa to propose co-curating the festival. After nine months of preparation, an open call, and crowdfunding, we are now opening our multidisciplinary DIY street festival dedicated to Auswanderung in die Zukunft. For this festival blog, I will share my multilingual notes, as well as Zeichnungen und Fotografien made over the festival.
