Workshops: "(dys)placed" and "my pause is political"
The exhibition 'Its a long way. Bring soft shoes' at Queer Center Kassel will end with two amazing workshops:
(dys)placed is hosted by Nomaswazi Mthombeni and Violet Nderaisho. my pause is political is hosted by Lea-Maraike Sambale and Tristan Marie Trotz. Check the workshops out in the slides or at QueeresZentrumKassel.de .
We are looking forward to weawing tender presents and futures with you.
The workshop '(dys)placed,' will deliberate on the multiple and cascading destructions that mark the contemporary moment, which have brought about deep feelings of loss, disconnection and displacement - particularly among people from marginalised communities. Through interactive discussions and activities, the workshop will raise questions about home and belonging; and explore the multiple ways in which we can collectively (re)envision and (re)build connections and community, nurture care, and foster belonging amid the bounds of dislocating change(s) and time(s).
The workshop will take place in English, and in two parts: on Friday, July 26, from 17h to 19h, and on Sunday, July 28, from 11h to 15h at the Queer Center Kassel, wich is located at Mauerstraße 11, 5th floor.
If you would like to participate in the workshop please send an email to [email protected] and please indicate if you will need assistance with translation.
In the workshop 'my pause is political' we will explore disobedient possibilities of pausing, self-care and care for each other. We pause as self-empowerment. We rest and refocus. We approach our bodies and needs with various sensory exercises. We learn about Care-Networks, Crip-Time and Spoon Theory and share what these practices can mean to us. We create anchoring objects from soothing scents, colors and surfaces and in the process spin tender presents and futures together.
The workshop will take place in two parts: on Thursday, July 25, from 14h to 19h, and on Saturday, July 27, from 14h to 19h at the Queer Center Kassel, wich is located at Mauerstraße 11, 5th floor.
The workshop will be held in German and English spoken language. Please send and e-mail to [email protected] to let us know your access needs beforehand.
***************
Die Ausstellung 'Der Weg ist weit. Bring weiche schuhe mit' im Queeren Zentrum Kassel wird mit zwei wundervollen Workshops enden:
(dys)placed mit Nomaswazi Mthombeni und Violet Nderaisho und Meine Pause ist politisch mit Lea-Maraike Sambale und Tristan Marie Trotz.
Lies mehr über die Workshops auf den Slides oder auf QueeresZentrumKassel.de. Wir freuen uns darauf, mit dir zärtliche Gegenwarten und Zukünfte zu weben.
Im Workshop Meine Pause ist politisch entdecken wir ungehorsame Möglichkeiten von Pausen, Self-Care und Sorge füreinander. Wir machen Pause als Selbstermächtigung. Wir ruhen uns aus und fokussieren neu. Wir nähern uns unseren Körpern und Bedürfnissen mit verschiedenen Wahrnehmungsübungen. Wir lernen Care-Netzwerke, Crip-Time und die Spoon Theory kennen und tauschen uns darüber aus, was diese Praktiken mit uns zu tun haben. Wir gestalten aus wohltuenden Düften, Farben und Oberflächen ankernde Objekte und spinnen dabei gemeinsam zärtliche Gegenwarten und Zukünfte.
Der Workshop findet in deutscher und englischer Lautsprache statt. Er hat zwei Teile: am Donnerstag, den 25. Juli und am Samstag den 27. Juli jeweils von 14-19 Uhr im Queeren Zentrum, Mauerstraße 11. 5.OG. Bitte schreibe uns vorher was du brauchst, um mitmachen zu können. Gerne per Mail an [email protected].
