Couch talk _ slow write – Antonella Fittipaldi and Lili Huston-Herterich
Sunday 26th October 2025
Location: Dijktheater
Couch talk _ slow write was a day-long transdisciplinary workshop exploring the movement between disassembling and reassembling a couch, as a metaphor for collectively engaging with de-composing and re-assembling knowledge. Departing from the shared interest Antonella and Lili have in finding lineages of information, the workshop was a space to practice slow writing while tracing what we know and who we learned it from.
Couch talk _ slow write was a day of play with materials, writing, and sound. By crafting some sort of vision for the near future, the workshop was a pool that offered movement tasks, prompts to witness as a care gesture, and practice to engage together in actions.
The couch became a subject of narratives, dreams and visions. Our presence moved between the roles of witness and writer, while working with textile, voice, collage, stitching, writing, drawing, and other mediums to co-create.
