Vom Schreiben in Schichten
Sitzt die Herkunft immer mit am Schreibtisch? Woher nimmt man nach der Schicht auf dem Gabelstapler noch die Kraft für Poesie? „Bescheidene Verhältnisse“ beschäftigt sich mit bescheidenen Verhältnissen. Und was man daraus macht.Eva Müller arbeitet in einer Imbissbude und einer Gummifabrik und zugleich als Comic-Autorin und Kulturvermittlerin.
Dinçer Güçyeter ist erfolgreicher Verleger, erfolgreicher Lyriker – und erfolgreicher Staplerfahrer. Jens Eisel fing während seiner Ausbildung zum Schlosser an zu lesen – und verdingte sich später als Hafenarbeiter. Aber schreiben Arbeiter*innen wirklich anders? Eine Begegnung mit zeitgenössischer Akkordarbeit in streng getakteten Schichten.

Ein Feature von Tabea Soergel und Martin Becker

Comic Workshop
"Antifacism"

For one of the biggest German unions I led a workshop on the topic of "Antifacism". Due to Covid measurements the number of participants was lower than usual, so we could work more intensly on the comics. We made long colorful stories and printed them as zines.

Comic Workshop
"Weird Species"

I teamed up with teacher Julie Kuhn and "Kulturagenten Hamburg" and held a workshop at "Stadtteilschule Eidelstedt". The 6th graders made comics about weird species and what they might eat. The Comics were exhibited at Karolonia Festival, spread around the city as posters, stickers, zines and little Films. It was a pleasure!

Residency at Camargo
Foundation

Since two weeks I call Cassis on the south coast of France my new home. For the next three months I am an artist in residency at the Camargo Foundation and part of their Core Programm. My new book is gonna be, what I am working on here (and I might even finish it. 206 pages by now. Knock on wood. ). The foundation was built and founded by the artist/filmmaker/philantropist Jérome Hill, who built this oasis. He also was a gay man who transferred his home into a safe space for queers and special people from around the world. I am unbelievably happy to have the privilege to be here in his house, that is full of history and also to be here with many amazing and smart artists and thinkers. Especially during this time of crisis. This may sound a little tacky now, but I still want to say it, because it is true: My book is about growing up in a workingclass family and trying to survive or even get access to worlds, where you have the feeling, you don't belong. The book is no straight autobiography, but it depicts huge parts of me and my life. So having the possibility to write and draw in a place like this, is really a huge deal for me on many levels. Looking back, even only 3 years, I would 've never believed it, when someone told me, that this is my life now. I am still in denial to be honest. So thank you Camargo Foundation for opening a new door to me and so many others.

Camargo Core Programm

Very special book:

»Affirmation und Negation als Figuren der Kritik«

3 years ago one of my closest friends and loves of my life, Rebecca, died. She was very smart and half into her promising PhD. So colleagues and friends came together to make a book that includes her recent work. It got published by Katzenberg and I can´t wait to hold it in my hands. It´s not only a scientific book, it is also a book about friendship, death, grief and sharing thougts with precious and smart humans.
I am very honored, that I also have a little Comic in the book, which comes together with the text of Heiko Stuberauch.
Get it here!

The Project "Comixx mit Klasse" by Literaturhaus Hamburg came to an end.

On June 15th they are going to receive the books at a festive event at the Literhaus hamburg and the project comes to an end. I was happy to talk via Zoom with Julia Freienberg, the project leader about my experience and it was nice to see the students receiving the book on stage.
