Die Höhle festival 2026_ Distance

Die Höhle festival will come back on May the 23rd and 24th 2026 for the third time at Expedition Metropolis Theater. Again a large inhabitable camera obscura will be set up in the theater, and visitors will enjoy creative and educational contents while also being involved in an immersive and archeological experience of photography. Distance is the caption of this edition of the festival: every photo a person sees broadens the horizons of their experience, without them having to take a single step towards the subject of the photo; photography is entangled in a necessary yet ambiguous relationship with distance, simultaneously eliminating and producing it. With an installation, two performances, one workshop and one talk, Die Hohle festival 2026 proposes to fantasize within this grey area.

SPECULUM by Carmen Lafran

SPECULUM is a performance engaging with narratives of power, exposing how bodies are framed, named, and stabilized. It questions the eye that dissects and categorizes, forcing into representation what cannot be contained within existing frameworks of objectification. From within the body, another story begins to unfold, revealing the inherent instability of the category itself. What emerges is a shifting terrain where meaning slips, expands, and reconfigures beyond the limits imposed upon it.

Entrence: €15, €10 reduced
