This takes place as part of the exhibition by the artist Neeharika Donau Hossain in the Onil gallery.
About the book:
Angelika Sinn's travel journal is a story about an encounter with a wondrous country - Kyrgyzstan. An invitation to a symposium for artists and writers takes the author to a yurt camp on the remote mountain lake Issyk Kul. There, the foreign natural landscape becomes a profound experience. In poetic images, Angelika Sinn tells how Kyrgyzstan "catapults" her out of her familiar "worlds". But also unexpected encounters with locals, an almost kidnapping or an overnight stay in a guesthouse that turns out to be a brothel, allow the readers to participate in this special experience, which “the smell of wet felt” can also conjure up at home.
Angelika Sinn lives and works in Worpswede and Bremen. She studied pedagogy as well as literature and cultural studies, and works as a freelance author, text artist and speaker for literary writing. Sinn publishes short stories, biographies, short stories, poetry and prose miniatures. In exhibitions she presents text objects, artist books, text-sound installations and literary performances. She also leads writing workshops, workshops and seminars.
