German for Artist
2024
sound performance, 15 min
In this performance, Chaya Shen realizes a useful tool for Ausländer, "German for Artist" by the Danish artist Stine Marie Jacobsen. This handbook helps "nicht-so-gut-deutsch" people build connections with the German contemporary cultural scene and entitles the artists through linguistic aid. During the process(living, breathing, or reading), I speak of myidentities as becoming fremd, becoming a Fremder.
