Description
CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing) presents Wanderlust, an evening with Azerbaijani Artist Elya Osmanova in the award-winning White Room at CRS on June 12 at 7pm. Using multidisciplinary art forms such as poetry, movement & visuals, this traveling artist leads us through a journey to uncover the meanings we give to home & belonging.
What is home? What’s belonging?! Do we belong to the language that we speak or the language that we think?! While exploring all of these concepts, Wanderlust gives the space to the audience to be part of process of exploration and sharing as a community, as part of her ongoing project.
