‘Anchored, Drifting’ is a wind-inspired workshop that uses KITE as both a powerful symbol and a playful medium for storytelling for people who have moved to the Netherlands from afar and are navigating life here to explore the layered experience of diaspora. A kite is always in-between: rooted, yet unrooted, tethered to a place, but drifting somewhere else. Together, we’ll reflect on migration not as a story of where we come from, but as an ongoing, fluid process of where we are right now and the uncertainties, possibilities, and transformations that come with it.
What will we do:
During the workshop, you can make your own kite using materials you bring, or personalise it through collage, drawing, and design. You will learn the technical skills of kite-making and create your own kite with guidance and assistance. Your kite becomes more than an object: it becomes a personal expression of movement, belonging, and the ever-changing process of defining home. After the workshop, we can go outside and fly the kites together, weather permitting.
Please mind: The workshop is ONLY for people who have moved to the Netherlands from afar and are navigating life here in Eindhoven.
