Over the past two months, artist Khattar Shaheen worked with Arnhem locals from near and far on the project: Unfolding stories. Every Wednesday, people gathered at Rozet to draw, share, and talk. During the presentation, we will share this process and the results with a small audience.
You are welcome to come and see, listen, and experience it for yourself!
About the artist
Khattar Shaheen (1993) is a visual artist from Studio Khattar, born in Syria and currently based in the Netherlands. In his work, he explores how personal memories, imagination, and the here and now can come together in images. He works with various media, such as drawing, charcoal, animation, and storytelling, using these forms to make feelings, thoughts, and small moments from daily life visible.
In times of uncertainty, Khattar explores what happens when people don’t start by talking, but by creating. The thoughts, small moments, and gentle memories that emerged during the encounters with the participants form the beginning of a new stop-motion film.
Program
The presentation is from 4:30 PM to 5:30 PM. We will meet at A Beautiful Mess. It is free and no registration is required.
Will we see you on Wednesday, May 27?
The Verre binding Residency: Join the Artist is part of Verre binding and is included in the programming of CONNECT Arnhem.
Verre binding Cultural Festival
On Saturday, June 20, residents of azc Elderhoeve will open their doors to people from Arnhem and beyond for the fourth edition of the Verre binding Cultural Festival. Let us harvest what connects us. Welcome to the Garden of Life! Will you join us?
Harvesting what connects us
While refugees are often talked about at discussion tables and talk shows, the residents of Elderhoeve azc are opening their doors instead. They invite people from Arnhem and beyond to enjoy a day filled with music, dance, and workshops in the Garden of Life. A place to meet, listen to one another, and create new memories together. A special opportunity to harvest what connects us.
What can you expect?
Listen to inspiring stories, dance together to music, sample dishes from different cuisines, and take part in a variety of workshops. We do not close borders; instead, we welcome everyone with open arms to experience, connect, and discover. There will also be a continuous program of activities for children throughout the day. We hope to see you there!
