Exhibition: “I Had a Dream”, Ludwigstrae 6. Saarbrücken

The project "I had a dream" explores the notorious Saydnaya prison in the north of Damascus, known for its extreme sensory deprivation. Through a book published by the Association of Detainees and Missing Persons in Saydnaya Prison (ADMSP), containing 14 collected testimonies from survivors, the project explores the hidden horror of this place and the transformative power of sound, silence and listening.

"I Had a Dream" opens the door for the audience to the harrowing reality of Saydnaya Prison. The installation, which immerses the viewer in the oppressive acoustics of the prison, amplifies the voices of the survivors and creates space for reflection and empathy.

The installation shows the paradoxical role of sound and hearing as a means of control, but also the impressive resilience of the unjustly imprisoned. The project illuminates the dual function of sound, silence and listening and deals with the light and shadow sides of the same phenomenon.

This logo reflects Abarra's philosophy: like a ferry, their music connects the rich worlds of Eastern and Western melodies. The design mirrors a ferry's gentle glide over water, symbolizing a seamless blend of the traditional and the contemporary. In Abarra's world, music is a universal language that flows, unites, and transports us to a place where all is one.

Cooperative project by coculture & Artist Training, UdK Berlin Career College

As the second lockdown was imposed in Germany, and with living in lockdown being the new normal across the world, the artists decided to document their lives on hundreds of office papers using drawings, texts, sketches, collages, photographs, and many other types of media. To give free rein to the artists’ freedom of expression and psychological depth, the papers will remain anonymous and not bear any signatures, only showing the date and time of creation.

With the lack of the opportunity for the artists to be personally present in the gallery, each artist will present her works from her specific geographical location by connecting to a printer via the internet and print her papers continuously over a period of six minutes every day for six consecutive days. All of this is going to happen in a space where the audience cannot be present; they can only experience the exhibition through a live stream that will display the flow of the papers and their arrival to the space through the printers, the presentation itself being part of the performance and installation as well.

This exhibition is offering an artistic space in a time of uncertainty and is an attempt to explore what has happened to the world during these past few months. The shown works serve as a unique kind of anonymous diary of the artists’ reactions to their situation, a stream of documentation examining the concepts of absence and presence during a global pandemic.

After the exhibition, the paper works were collected and organized after date and time of creation and bound together in a book and was presented later in an exhibition titled "PRESENCE IS NOT THE OPPOSITE OF ABSENCE"as part of UDK Berlin Rundgang.

In many Arab cities, the markets, the souqs, are the lively centre piece and hub of diverse goods, impressions, sounds and scents. This is where different sections of society come together and haggle over money and opinions.

"Revolutionary Souq" at Kampnagel was a cultural festival designed to immerse the Hamburg community in the experiences of civil activism and the stark realities of the conflict in Syria. Initially halted by the pandemic, the Souq was revitalized online from March 15 to 18, 2021, to mark the 10th anniversary of Syria's uprising. The event featured exhibitions, discussions, performances, and concerts, reflecting the escalating tensions in Syria's history and the resilience of its people.

Small Talk

“Small talk” is a project that Razan Sabbagh has started during the COVID-19 pandemic, where she reached out her family members, her friends, or suggested friends of friends, and then having an individual video call with each of them.

The video calls are seen as one-to-one performances, where she gets in touch with people, talking with them, and she reflects in writing the thoughts, and feelings that they express while they’re talking, so they can see the process during the call.

Such conversations are more like small talk than an interview, where Razan Sabbagh tries to make them feel at ease and encourage them to speak up about their thoughts by guiding the conversation by asking some questions, i,e: Describe the place you are sitting in, the colours you see, what odours you smell? Describe the feeling of your body? What are you feeling at the moment? What is fear in your opinion? etc.

For Through Solidarity, We Survive, Razan Sabbagh has chosen the self-portrait version to be part of the campaign, the one she has done while having the conversation with herself.

Having more time to sit with ourselves due to social distancing and quarantine made us think and/or re-think on many thoughts that we never had the time, the real chance, or maybe the courage to pay attention to. This fact has a lot to do with the effects of the pandemic on us, and consequently on the world.
