Season’s thinker Neske Beks
Neske Beks is an interdisciplinary artist who is primarily active as an author, film director and healer. As an author she explores many areas: from stage plays to scenarios for fiction films and documentaries to many genres of literature. In ECHO – a collection of essays on Black Womanhood – Beks denounces our society’s prevailing white Eurocentric attitude.
The presentation of different perspectives and narratives is also the leitmotif of her other socially and politically engaged work. This season, Neske Beks tells stories about female role models from literature and music, but she also writes about self-care and togetherness in a world in which stress is causing ever more damage. One of her main goals this season is to take a closer look at the healing power of art.
