How can the imaginary be made visible? Which artist mythologies are accompanied by corresponding social expectations, self-images and realities of life? Longing as the pure, adventurous desire to discover the vastness of the world for yourself? Radical artistic and social positions that are not overburdened by compromise? How can we live in omnipresent capitalism and practice solidarity and real community?

TUESDAY, 17. AUGUST 2021, 18H: N*A*I*L*S PANEL WITH U.A. SUZA HUSSE IN CONVERSATION WITH YEN LE (LE NAILS EDUCATION CENTRE BERLIN), INVITED BY ANNA EHRENSTEIN, 

Yen Le is a nail artist and manages a nail salon at Berlin’s Rosenthaler Platz, as well as being the founder of Le Nails Education Centre at Don Xuan Center, Lichtenberg. The NAILS hacksfactsfictions platform was founded upon the initiative of Ayşe Güleç, Suza Husse and Katja Kobolt at the Berlin University of Arts in 2018. The platform imagines the nail salon as a queer site of critical, transcultural practices and intersectional care politics. Across multiple collaborations, artistic and educational formats and a magazine, the platform has approached nails as a collective interface for hacking the “magic” of commodities and for troubling biopolitics. For more information and the free PDF of the NAILS hacksfactsfictions collaborative magazine on nailwork, art and migration, visit the District Berlin website.
