Description
Open writing circle
Guest: Xava Mikosch
Words and stories reside within all of us, waiting to be discovered.
Our monthly Open Writing Circle invites people with all levels of writing experience to explore their creativity and imagination.
In each session, one of Berlin’s many exceptional writers, poets, artists, or curators will create a vibrant and collective learning experience.
Whether you’re interested in fiction, memoir, non-fiction, or poetry, this supportive space encourages you to uncover the words within you. We’ll draw upon techniques used in writing workshops to unleash your innate talent in a collaborative environment that will allow for a dynamic exchange of ideas and insights.
This workshop aims to create an affirming, playful and empowering space for queer people to explore, express and celebrate their identities as well as to provide a platform for the stories of the LGBTQIA+ community to be shared, heard and valued.
Xava Mikosch (they/them) is a filmmaker performance artist and likes to write a lot. In their practice they explore power structures of the gaze questions what bodies want to be how they can transform themselves and what role the imagination plays within that. Their work has an interdisciplenary approach focusing on the power dynamics of (body) languages.
