In the spirit of the festival and its idea that spaces of support are built not only through large systems and institutions, but also through everyday gestures, shared time, and the exchange of experiences and knowledge, we gather around the preparation and sharing of food at our studio Načeta. Together with local artist-hosts Anja Mergeduš and Dora Brkarić, and Miloš Janjić, an artist-host from Serbia, we connect the dinner with a collective intervention of writing and sending postcards in solidarity with students and cultural workers in Serbia. Their ongoing resistance for the past two years raises a crucial question about the lack of accountability among cultural and political institutions. The postcards will also serve as artefacts in their own right, helping us map, through open conversation, examples of resistance within Serbia’s cultural and artistic fields. Participants are invited to express their support in whatever way feels right to them, creating postcards as small carriers of solidarity that connect this local gathering and collective action with broader networks of support across the region and Europe.
