January – May 2024. dears, write season 1 @ Cabaret Voltaire, Zurich
With dears, write, we intend to focus on the process of writing and the multiple ways of relating thereby engaged, rather than on the results. However, along the way, some texts do emerge. We are happy to share a collection of them with you on the dadablog – enjoy!
