Free entrance
with DJ Blow Bloem, Damaris, Valerie Van der Straten, Loveth Besamoh, Niek Driesschen, Chypko Flowers, Charlotte van de Graaff.

Space Stimulate Is a special night with performances, Indonesian food (limited availability) and an OPEN MIC for singers, poets, writers and spoken word artists who want to participate and share their art. On this day we reflect on constructed scenarios and colliding worlds of diaspora and migration. We invite you to eat with us and be confronted with simultaneous performances & happenings in the room! The food will be cooked by Ratri, who will be preparing Indonesian delights and delicacies!

This event is part of “along along” the exhibition of Hamburger Community resident, Ratri Notosudirdjo. Ratri explores the narratives in relation to the diasporic and migrative body and how the abundance of the body can form the locality of a migrating reality.

ABOUT VALERIE VAN DER STRATEN
Valerie is a Dutch/Chilean poet who gets inspired by the wordplay of different languages. Her passionate and sensual poems originate from her Spanish mother tongue, while her mystical/spiritual poems are expressed in English.
