This performative gathering invites participants into the artistic world of Halimatu Iddrisu, current IASPIS artist-in-residence at Konstepidemin in Gothenburg. During the event, Iddrisu will paint with henna on the hands of willing participants. Through this shared and tactile act, she explores intimacy, ritual, and collective experience as central elements of her artistic practice — one that is performative, materially engaged, and participatory.
