Opening of the expansive installation
THE CAGE as part of the
International Handel Festival.Â
Visitors are invited to open a cage door—as a poetic gesture of remembrance and liberation.
With artist Fahar Al-Salih, patron Stefanie Patruno/Kunstmuseum Karlsruhe, Pastor Claudia Rauch/Ev. Citykirche Karlsruhe, and Stephanie Twiehaus/Badisches Staatstheater Karlsruhe.
Music: String quartet of the German Handel Soloists and church music director Christian-Markus Raiser, organ.Â
With
THE CAGE, Fahar Al-Salih created a space-filling installation in 2022 from over 500 handmade birdcages. The space appears at once like a cage and a temple, raising questions about freedom, memory, and belonging.
THE CAGE is a collective resonance space for freedom, community, and connectedness.Â
