The Open Space \u201cTime Machine Infinitum <\/strong>\u2013 Queer migrant Berlin<\/span>\u201d by Noam Gorbat, Omar Nicolas and Sama Ahmadi in the exhibition BERLIN GLOBAL embarks on a journey through time, exploring queer migrant Berlin. <\/strong><\/p>\n

The multimedia installation moves through the past, present and future to highlight and honor the presence and cultural heritage of queer migrants and BIPoC in the city.<\/p>\n

In a series of videos, the artists, together with numerous protagonists, focus on spaces of exchange, self\u2011organisation and visibility for queer BIPoC (Black, Indigenous, People of Colour) in Berlin. They connect queer-migrant history of the 1920s and queer Jewish life before the Second World War with political activism by the association \u201cADEFRA \u2013 Black Women in Germany\u201d in the 1980s or the \u201cOYA Collective\u201d today, extending to visions of the youth ballroom scene for a queer Berlin of the future. The various places, people and temporal layers enter into dialogue with one another, forming a dynamic network of individual and collective narratives.<\/p>\n

The installation understands itself as part of a self\u2011determined, open\u2011ended history shaped by continuities, overlaps and memories. In the museum context, the work presents this legacy as a multivocal journey through time.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n
