Commonhood: Turning towards each other is a public intervention and neighbourhood gathering for housing, solidarity, and collective care, held at Olafiagangen, Grønland from 12:00 - 15:00, bringing people together through art, music, food and collective learning.
As housing becomes increasingly shaped by profit and speculation, we want to make space to come together, share knowledge, build connections, and ask how we can resist the violence of capitalism collectively.
Commonhood: Turning towards each other is curated and organised by Vjolla Emiri in collaboration with artist collective Taring Padi, Leieboerforeningen (The Tenants Assosiation of Norway), Reduser Husleia, Masahat and Atelier Kunstnerforbund.
