'DY(e)ING with coffee' as part of COMMODITY CAFÉ with Vera Anttila

sh sh 
linger around the busyness-as-usual
where does the work of art end and life begin?

burning, fire, 
soaked in caffeinated perspectives,
grounding, grinding, weaving visions 

water, fire, heatwaves boiling over
steaming, roasting, ingesting matter

mmm…
digesting thoughts on…death, burning and the gift 

You are invited to take part in the round-table reading and discussion workshop 'DY(e)ING with coffee' led by Vera Anttila on the 30th of October from 16:00-17:30 at Beta Space Gallery in Aalto University.
