MORE THAN HUMAN

A literature and art event at the G!festival

The event will take place on Friday, July 19th at 3-5pm at Rønn's Studio.

Location: Úti í Bø 7, Syðrugøta.

The inspiration for the event comes from American poet Ada Limón's latest book "The Hurting Kind", which is an exploration of sensitivity and connection.

What does it mean to be the hurting kind?

How can we foster the ability to discern the relationships that bind us all, perceiving our reflections in other beings?

Organised and curated by the publishers Eksil together with the G! Festival.

The event will house an art exhibition by the artists:

Bruno Mikael Eysturstein and Tummas Jákup Thomsen

Readings by poets and writers:

Askur Skaalum Gregersen, Beinir Bergsson, Vónbjørt Vang Rannvá Haldisardóttir Glerfoss Rannvá Holm Mortensen Kim Simonsen, Rønn Eliasen, Lív Maria Róadóttir Jæger, Nansý Sunadóttir & Guðrið Poulsen
