In this way, the exhibition offers a space for various kinds of engagement, with an emphasis on the project\u2019s processual and performative nature, by activating the space and exploring different ways of inhabiting it, transforming the museum into a space of connectivity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2 p.m. \u2013 Performance by Hubert Gromny: <em>The Soil<\/em><br \/>\n<\/strong>The performance is informed by the methodology of storytelling and image-making based on the notion of summoning, listening to images, and listening to the land. <em>The Soil<\/em> is the outcome of research for which the artist engaged with listening to the land of his hometown Po\u0142aniec in South-East Poland. An analogue camera became an apparatus of listening to the place, retrieving un-archival stories and relating with the ancestry, the soil, as well as reflecting on the notion of property.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3 p.m. \u2013 Performance by Dans Afr\u00edka Iceland<br \/>\n<\/strong>The performance will involve drumming and dancing to the rhythms of the Baga people to honour the traditions and ancestors, keeping the heritage alive for generations to come. The performers feel it is important to spread the joy that comes from hearing and seeing the African art of music and dance and would like the audience to let go of the boundaries imposed by society by joining in the performance and experiencing the healing of the sound of the drum and the movement of dance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Everyone welcome \u2013 free entry.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday October 31st, Hafnarborg\u2018s autumn exhibition, Community of Sentient Beings, will come to an end with a soft closing from 2-4 p.m. It will start with a performance by Hubert Gromny at 2 p.m. and continue with a performance by Dans Afr\u00edka Iceland at 3 p.m., concluded by closing speeches.
