WUPPER-TOPIA

The Wupper flows through the city fueling the ecosystem, a city in transformation. Our ideas can also be a river, when given space to flow and gush. Let’s push our thoughts beyond the status quo and the limits of our imaginations: Like the river, our ideas can affect the city. What is your idea of Wupper-topia?

An interactive online symposium with students from Gesamtschule Langerfeld and Berufskolleg Kohlstraße, held by Australian dancers and co-directors of Cie.OFEN Gala Moody and Michael Carter. For two weeks this utopian odyssey will generate ideas for the future of Wuppertal and materialise these ideas into a group art project which will be presented in the short film "Wupper-topia" from Thursday 26th November 7.30 pm via the under construction Website.
The Symposium will also be documented on the Cie.OFEN website https://cieofen.com/wupper-topia
