Through the use of reference images\, writing\, and drawing\, partici pants will experiment with portraiture as a way to deconstruct and reimagi ne broader paradigms of identity.\n\nEach participant is asked to bring on e image they consider to be a self-portrait\, however literal or symbolic. Using this image as a starting point\, participants will receive a series of prompts and instructions to guide their drawings\, which they may foll ow\, resist\, or reimagine altogether. The workshop will conclude with a c ollective sharing and discussion of the works created.\n\nThis workshop is exclusively intended for Black people and people of African descent. We k indly ask that this collective self-identification and the spaces connecte d to it be respected. The workshop will be predominantly held in English\, with the option of translation into German. No prior knowledge or skills are required.\n\nMonilola Olayemi Ilupeju (she/her) is a Nigerian-America n artist and writer based in Berlin. Working across painting\, writing\, p erformance and installation\, she balances intimate experiences of connect ion\, violence\, and healing against broader considerations of cultural di stortion and identity. She graduated with distinction from New York Univer sity\, where she studied studio art and social and cultural analysis. She is also an alumna of the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. She i s currently a participant in the BPA// Berlin Program for Artists.\n\nInst agram: @monilola\n\nAnna Yeboah (she/her) is an architect and curator. I n her exhibitions\, lectures and interdisciplinary projects\, she deals wi th power systems in built space\, memory culture and the decolonisation of architectural and cultural praxis. From 2020 to 2024\, she coordinated th e pilot project Dekoloniale Erinnerungskultur in der Stadt - Decolonial Cu lture of Remembrance in the City for the Initiative of Black People in Ger many e.V.\, which deals with the critical processing\, mediation and remem brance of colonialism originating in Berlin. As part of the Nicht Einfach (Not Easy) specialists team\, Anna Yeboah conceived the content of this ev ent together with the artist.\n\nInstagram: @annakoma\n\nThis event is spa rt of the pluralistic Discourse Programme Not Easy: It invites dialogue on plural perspectives within contemporary German memory discourse and socia l coexistence. Starting from the life and work of the artist Irma Stern (1 894–1966)\, it explores the complex entanglements of antisemitism\, coloni alism and racism. The programme encourages participants to expand their pe rspective on Stern’s ambivalent experiences between persecution and exile as a Jewish German woman\, as well as her privileges as a white South Afri can.\n\nDeveloped by Ahmad Dakhnous\, Tahir Della\, Anna Yeboah and Yehudi t Yinhar\, accompanied by Pegah Byroum-Wand and Daniela Bystron.\n\n* Peop le of African Descent is an internationally used term that encompasses all people who have their roots in Africa\, regardless of where they live tod ay. The term originated in the context of the UN and international human r ights debates to highlight and specifically address the diversity\, histor y and experiences of discrimination faced by people of African descent.
