Join us for The Last Commune, a collective dreaming session centered around queer futurity. Through somatic exercises, role play, collective storytelling, and map-making, we will explore and design alternative futures rooted in our shared experiences and desires. This is a space for the unfolding of wishes not yet formulated — a place to rest, fabulate and transform together.
Alicja Wysocka’s upcoming mockumentary film will incorporate contributions from this session — imagined futures, embodied characters, and utopian fragments — to build a fictional archive of a commune that never was, or has yet to come into being. The film becomes a rehearsal space for possible futures, challenging dominant narratives of crisis and exclusion.
Grounded in the understanding that we are too often surrounded by discriminatory and exclusionary structures, this workshop playfully imagines alternative narratives. How can our concrete needs become possible fictions? How might we dream up forms of organization and spaces that are less violent, more caring, and rooted in interdependence?
Stories full of beginnings will emerge — connecting, confusing, pausing, and listening. This space is created by and for LGBTQIA+ individuals. Come co-create and co-dream with us.
Venue: aqb Foyer (B building, 3rd floor)

Alicja Wysocka (born in Poland, lives and works internationally) is an interdisciplinary artist who creates performances and choreographs situations exploring alternative economic models, the commons, and collaborative, community-based forms of coexistence. Her practice imagines new frameworks for collective living and shared prosperity, often queering traditional structures. Through a cross-disciplinary approach, she develops works that frequently function as collective, therapeutic experiences. She works primarily with time-based media and installation. She graduated from the Hochschule für Bildende Künste – Städelschule in Frankfurt am Main, where she studied in the class of Haegue Yang.
