Cultural Mediation
Since 2021 I am working as artistic director with Weiter Schreiben Schweiz, a platform for exiled authors from conflict areas that showcases their literary work in Switzerland. The exiled authors work in tandem with established authors in Switzerland and with translators, creating brand new literary pieces that reflect these collaborative exchanges as well as sharing works that have so far remained inaccessible to a broader audience.
I am also curator and editor for the related project Weiter Schreiben Mondial, where I have contributed to the selectio of authors and texts from Angola. Among other things, Weiter Schreiben Mondial puts exiled authors in touch and exchange with authors in a variety of countries: Angola, Burkina Faso, Egypt, Iran and Belarus.
