Ensom, Carl

Carl Ensom (c) Nadine Redlich

Carl Ensom is a poet, author and photographer and lives in Berlin. He was born in 1984 in a country that no longer exists. But the connection remains, in the search for words and their meaning. His texts, which he publishes on his blog carlensom.com and on Instagram (@carlensom), are always about the epically natural, which has not yet given up the fight against the inevitable destruction caused by humans.

Poets‘ Corner in Charlottenburg

Wir werden über die Einfachheit unserer Liebe staunen

Villa Oppenheim, Schloßstr. 55 | Otto-Grünberg-Weg, 14059 Berlin| Free entry

Love poetry is old as the genre itself and to this day, poetry tells of the great pains and joys of love. On this summer evening, we share sorrows and desires in a place that, as an archive and museum, surely has seen some romances in the past. Among others, the Berlin project Lost&Found, which invites authors to write poetic texts based on found black and white photographs, will provide insights into its edition IN LOVE FROM. Love usually goes better with music, so there will be musical interventions as well.
