There is more than one future

These and other questions will be addressed in the workshop led by human rights activist Noemi Grütter. Starting from the crises staring us in the face, participants will be introduced to speculative fabulation, inspired by trailblazers such as Donna Haraway, Octavia Butler, Ruth Levitas and Adrienne Maree Brown. This feminist, decolonial methodology creates space for collaborative, non-hierarchical knowledge production and invites participants to reimagine the world alongside artists, activists and everyday visionaries.

The workshop focuses on listening, storytelling and creating together. Using collages and sound, participants activate their political imagination and develop different futures beyond patriarchal violence, white nationalism, capitalism and climate collapse. In this context, utopias are not understood as a perfect end state, but as a practice – as something one can do on a daily basis to confront the feeling of hopelessness with resilience.

This event is part of the annual focus RAUM.
