Poets´ Corner in Friedrichshain

Wor(l)ding Dreamers

2024-07-13, 4:00 PM

Galerie im Turm, Frankfurter Tor 1, 10243 Berlin | Free entry

Sleeping and dreaming next to each other is an ancient practice. In the sleeping temples of antiquity, sick people sought healing in their dream images. And even today, lying down in a shared space and in contact with one’s own body and surroundings can be an experience to test our limits, enabling new forms of perception, invention and encounter. With hooops, who invite you to take a collective nap, we enter a threshold space which allows you to relax and open your imagination.

The event takes place in exchange with the exhibition and reading program Wor(l)ding Dreamers at Galerie im Turm and consists of three parts.  

4-5 pm: Resting with the collective hoops and the poets Johanna Hühn and Charlotte Warsen (DE) 

5-6 pm: Focused listening session with the sound artist Alifiyah Imani  

6 pm: Reading with poets Hannah Abdullahi, hn. lyonga and Savannah Sipho (EN)  

All parts of the event can be attended individually or in bloc. 

The event will be held partly in English.
