In collaboration with a performer, artist and choreographer Joanna Zabielska introduces movement into her installation "Design des Anonymen", presented in the philomena+ project space. The sculptural elements, composed of blue-and-red-checked bag fragments reminiscent of both market stalls and luggage, serve as carriers of personal stories and utopian ideas.

Multidisciplinary artist and composer Nour Sokhon presents "Beirut Birds", an audiovisual experience that takes up personal stories of migration, displacement, and the cyclical turbulent circumstances in Lebanon. In a live performance, she combines interview fragments and object noises with experimental sounds, complemented by projections of cityscapes of Beirut and bird migrations across the Mediterranean.
