Beschreibung

Autobiographical and traditional stories with German-American Katinka Kraft, Berlin.

From fairy gateways to raven wisdom, these stories weave themselves through the cobblestone streets of 80's Berlin to the moss covered branches of the PacificNorthwest. As the tallest trees on earth hold each other steady underneath the ground, how does one find roots while being split between cultures, parents and continents? Katinka Kraft is a storyteller and spoken word artist.With a background in spoken word and creative writing, Katinka fuses poetic awareness of image, rhythm and sound with the connective quality and immediacy of oral storytelling. Her work combines hermemories of childhood, being German American, queer femme identity, and her attempts to find earth-bound truths worth digging her feet into. This show connects the traditional story with the autobiographical to bring forth that which is political, personal and timeless.
