Talk series in discussion form
Kilmé is a talk series dedicated to Palestinian artists, intellectuals,
and academics; a platform to present their work and speak about
subjects that are important to them. Kilmé means word in Arabic.
From september 2024 on, the organizers will be talking to their
Palestinian guests in this monthly series. They are dedicated to
presenting palestinian voices in all of their diversity and creativity,
thus contributing to the cultural landscape of Berlin, a city with the
largest Palestinian population in Europe.
On the 30th of september Oraib Toukan will be the guest. The Evening will be moderated by Tyme Khleifi and Michael Barenboim.
Oraib Toukan is an artist, writer, and educator. Through a diverse body of work that probes photography, film, and text, she explores alternative, native, and vernacular understandings of images, often drawing from the rich lexicon of Arabic language.
She is an EUME scholar at the Forum Transregionale Studien, Berlin in collaboration with the Harun University of Oxford, Ruskin School of Art where she completed a PhD in 2019.
