Loving Shedhalle—Abundance presents: Roma Jam Session art collective (RJSaK) Archive @romajamsession_artkollektiv The Roma Jam Session art collective (RJSaK) was active from 2013 to 2023. “We founded an association and sought our path, working with acting, typography, language, movement, dance and sound to create performative interventions. Our goal was to break down the fossilized images of the Rom*nja in our societies and to find new artistic forms shedding a light on untold Swiss history and beyond. RJSaK ARCHIVES is alive and present in contemporary institutions and alternative art spaces.” Text: Mo Diener @mo.diener The founding Members of RJSaK met at Shedhalle in 2013 during “Die Schweiz ist keine Insel, Teil 1 : In lästiger Gesellschaft.” Mo Diener is a performance and media artist whose practice engages transdisciplinary methodologies across performance, visual media, anthropology, and cultural studies. Since discovering her Roma/Sinti ancestry in 2009, her work has turned toward social and forensic archives, cultural memory, and eco-feminist strategies of historiography and community building. Following the passing of RR Marki in 2022, she became custodian of the RJSaK ARCHIVE, responsible for its curatorial care, digital presence, and critical visibility. RR Marki was a Roma artist and activist whose work engaged with historical and socio-political issues concerning the visibility of Roma art and culture in Europe. In 2013, he co-founded the Roma Jam Session art Kollektiv (RJSaK) with artist Mo Diener and actress Milena Petrovic. RR Marki passed away in Zurich in December 2022. Milena Petrovic works as an actress across film, theater, and radio. Together with Mustafa Asan and Mo Diener, Milena Petrovic co-founded the Roma Jam Session art Kollektiv (RJSaK). ❣️ Loving Shedhalle—Abundance 40 Years Shedhalle Zurich 24.10.2025 - 11.01.2026 Developed and curated by Michael Hiltbrunner @michael_hilt_brunner , Carla Peca @carlacatinka , Lucie Tuma @lucie.tuma Curatorial Assistance Vanessa Bosch @chao54ngel , David Dragan @davidddragan Graphic Design by Studio Yukiko @studio_yukiko @shedhalle_archives

«Erinnern für die Zukunft. Jenische, Sinti*zze und Rom*nja»: Mo Diener, Stefan Heinichen und Willi Wottreng sind Aktivist*innen, die alle auch als Kulturschaffende tätig sind. Im Neue Wege-Gespräch tauschen sie sich aus über die Suche nach der eigenen Geschichte, über den langen Kampf zur Überwindung von institutionellem Rassismus und über Formen künstlerischer Präsenz, die die Gesellschaft von innen verändern könnten. @mo.diener @stefanheinichen

2/3 of Us – An ‘Indigenous-Eco-Futurist’ Lab. 🌐🌱 “We propose an intersection of imagination, technology, future narratives, and resilience. It is an artistic aesthetic framework we propose where critical theory interacts with elements of oral histories and traditional knowledge, ecofeminism, caste and race as well as concepts of Punk and Futurisms, scientific, historical and speculative fiction connecting the Global South with the Global North. Our desire and hope is to create a vortex where creative energies and experiences of sharing and friendship can open up for a life-supporting futurity beyond hierarchies. We manifest, through texts, media and video, traditional artistic and creative imagery, sculptures, reconstructed glocal materials, soundscapes, performative choreographies and digital web-enabled interactivity.” 🎨🎭🌍 @wencymendes #prohelvetia #prohelvetia_newdelhi

Kollektive Performance am 11. Juni um 16 Uhr! Kommt nach Oerlikon/ MFO Park. We love you💜
