Chromatic Wednesdays is a monthly interdisciplinary event series based in Berlin, organized by visual artist and filmmaker Emre Birişmen and sound artist Melih Sarıgöl. The series brings together various artistic practices, including performance, sound, moving image, and panel discussions, in thematically structured programs at different venues across the city. 

Chromatic Wednesdays, which previously centered around the Apartment Project space in Neukölln, will transition to a mobile and decentralized structure for its upcoming fourth and fifth seasons. This shift aims to encourage stronger collaborations, emphasize site-specific thinking, and build new connections that reflect the social and cultural fabric of Berlin.

Season 2
Episode 4

Theme:
Exile

27 April ´22


HAUNTED / DESERT
Syria, 2014, 112 min, Arabic with
English subtitles) by Liwaa Yazji,
followed by a conversation with
the filmmaker, moderated by Erden Kosova

Concert by Rasha Nahas
Chromatic Wednesdays continues its exploration of the theme “Exile” with filmmaker Liwaa Yazji and musician Rasha Nahas. Liwaa Yazji’s award-winning film “Haunted” delves into the loss of home and security, tracing the reasons why people either stay in or leave their homes during the war in Syria. The film also explores the material and metaphorical meanings of home. By conveying the physical, emotional, and psychological toll of displacement, it captures the uncertainty resulting from flight and displacement due to war, creating a non-space that exists between yesterday and tomorrow.

Rasha Nahas introduces her listeners to her Palestinian background through sonic landscapes, influenced in no small part by the underground scene of her hometown, Haifa. Her songs often narrate moments of transition, departure, and arrival. Her 2021 album “Desert” documents her journey from Haifa, where she wrote most of the songs, through Turkey, where she penned the last track while sitting under a tree by a river, to Germany, where she recorded the album at her new home base.

Liwaa Yazji is a Syrian filmmaker, playwright, TV screenwriter, dramaturge, and poet. With degrees in English Literature and Theatre Studies, she has lived and worked in Beirut and Berlin. Liwaa’s play “Q&Q” premiered at the B!RTH festival at the Royal Exchange Theatre in Manchester in 2016, and her play “Goats” premiered at The Royal Court in London in 2017. In 2015, Liwaa was a poet-in-residence at New York’s Poets House. Currently, she is the co-writer of “HEIM,” a television series to be produced in Germany, and a board member of Ettijahat-Independent Culture. Her libretto for the opera “Songs for Days to Come” will premiere in June 2022 at the Theater Osnabrück.

Palestinian singer, composer, and instrumentalist Rasha Nahas has a distinctive approach to songwriting, storytelling, and performance. Her sound seamlessly traverses the resonances of early rock ‘n’ roll and the anarchic heyday of ‘80s experimental electronica. Rasha’s critically acclaimed debut album “Desert” was featured on BBC Radio 4’s Loose Ends and the Spotify-produced podcast, Spotify:Mic Check. Her upcoming LP “Amrat” is set to be released in the summer of 2022, with tours scheduled across Europe and West Asia. Rasha’s first venture into the Arabic language explores themes of home, belonging, spirituality, freedom, and her relationship with her mother tongue. Rasha is among the first recipients of the Bertha Foundation’s Artivism Award in 2022.
