Belonging – Udstillingen

Udstillingen bestod af 28 marionetdukker. Hver var et selvportræt og var lavet af en indvandrer til Danmark. Nogle havde boet her i årtier, andre kun i få uger. Nogle kom for at få arbejde, nogle for kærligheden og nogle fordi de ikke havde noget valg. Men hvordan og hvornår følte de, at de hørte til her?

Mens dukkerne blev lavet, delte deltagerne deres historier om at bo i Danmark, om hvornår de føler, at de hører til, og hvornår de ikke gør det. Du kunne læse uddrag af disse historier under hver dukke. Historierne er nu blevet kombineret til en dukkeforestilling af TEATER animisme med titlen Belonging.

Belonging – The Exhibition

The exhibition consisted of 28 puppets. Each was a self-portrait and had been made by an immigrant to Denmark. Some had lived here decades, some a matter of weeks. Some came for work, some for love and some because they had no choice. But how and when did they feel like they belong here?

As the puppets were being made, the participants shared their stories of living in Denmark, when they feel like they belong and when they don’t. You could read exerts from these stories underneath each puppet. The stories have  now been combined into a puppetry performance by TEATER animisme called Belonging.
