Dear Friends
I am delighted to present Let’s Take a Walk #65, a Participatory Performance at EnTransíto: In Spirit, We Are Elsewhere, a group exhibition taking place May 1st to May 4th in Ibiza Spain.
Be part of the walk, in person or worldwide, via Instagram Live @Letstakeawalk_world. Schedule will be posted soon.
Together we’ll explore themes of connection and transformation through storytelling, singing, shared experiences and walking. Your participation will help create a moment that transcends borders, a shared journey of understanding and peace.
Let’s Take a Walk is an ongoing global participatory performance that embodies our collective quest for peace and transformation. Originating in 2009 as a Twitter-based initiative, it has evolved into an immersive on-site experience that invites participants worldwide to join via Instagram Live @Letstakeawalk_world. During each performance, participants engage in dialogue about peace and human rights, sing songs, and spread kindness. The knitted overskirt, created as we shared stories prior to the participatory walks and worn during the walk, unravels as a symbolic trace of the journey. Performance artifacts are added to the ever-growing installation of Let’s Take a Walk.
Concept Highlights:
Collective Storytelling: Participants share narratives about their ancestors through storytelling and knitting sessions, creating connections across diverse histories. Walking Performance: The walk occurs around significant locations emphasizing global interconnectedness. Call-and-Response Engagement: Interactive musical elements like “Dona Nobis Pacem” foster shared expression and unity. Global Participation: Virtual components allow individuals from Hamburg, Ibiza, Adelaide, and beyond to engage in real-time.
EnTransíto: In Spirit, We Are Elsewhere.
EnTransíto is an artistic and philosophical exploration of spirituality, longing, and transformation. This event brings together artists and curators from Hamburg and Ibiza to reflect on transitions, cultural encounters, and the yearning for “elsewhere.” Held at the Church of Sant Antoni de Portmany in Ibiza from April 27, 2024, to May 5, 2025, with its exhibition opening on May 1, 2025, the project incorporates themes inspired by philosopher Walter Benjamin. His concepts of “aura” and “now-time” serve as a foundation for the works displayed, which delve into the interplay between memory and new beginnings. The venue’s sacred architecture enhances the experience by blending earthly and transcendent elements. The exhibition invites participants to question their connection to art, space, time, and spirituality while fostering a sense of discovery between physical or metaphorical spaces. A smaller-format exhibition will occur in Hamburg at Raum linksrechts gallery in October 2025 following this event.
Warm regards,
Marie Christine
