Power Draws the Map

During the three days of the event, Dinga will host an open space for guests to gather, meet, and engage in conversations about art, culture, identity, and the ways power shapes boundaries. The programme focuses on dialogue and exchange, creating an environment where visitors can reflect on how cultural and political norms influence belonging, visibility, and self-expression.
Through informal discussions, the project explores how power draws the map of society — defining what is considered inside or outside, accepted or excluded. Guests are invited to share perspectives, experiences, and ideas about how identity is formed within social structures, traditions, and institutions.
The space encourages listening, openness, and connection across different backgrounds. By bringing people together through conversation, the programme aims to create awareness of how boundaries are constructed and how they can be reimagined through collective reflection and cultural exchange.

Biography
Dinga
Dinga is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice moves between abstract painting, performance, fashion and physical expression. The work examines cultural and political boundaries as forces that shape identity, belonging and visibility. Based on his own experiences in different geographical and social contexts, Dinga explores how power structures and social norms are inscribed in the body and internalised over time.
Instead of understanding identity as something solid, Dinga understands it as a process - fluid, fragmented and continuously negotiated in the field of tension between inside and outside. In work, boundaries do not appear as rigid lines, but as permeable spaces in which tension, vulnerability
