We cordially invite you to the lecture performance What is the cost of silence by Natascha Nassir-Shahnian.
Sun, 22.06. at 5 pm.
In What is the cost of silence, Natascha Nassir-Shahnian creates a space for an intimate confrontation with one’s own adaptation, conformity and complicity in exploitative systems. Using elements of storytelling, somatics and imaginary worlds, she guides a process in which personal and collective tensions are explored and visions for changing resistant practices become possible.
The event will be held in German – with the possibility of translation into English.
As part of the exhibition You Breathe Differently Under the Weight. Debt and Credit, Natascha Nassir-Shahnian has produced the video work ABNORMAL 01 glitch, which is an introduction to an ongoing autobiographical research into the German-Namibian colonial relationship. It is part of a larger docu-fiction series that is dedicated to the continuity of extractivist practices (actions aimed at exploitation that take and utilize resources materially, humanly or culturally).
