Can Art Help Us Find Home? Lecture with Chadi Abdul Karim

Chadi Abdul Karim has worked with music, theatre, and film for over 25 years and has been honored with a Reumert award for his artistic work. In this lecture at Islands Brygge Bibliotek, he appears without sets, roles, or soundtracks - only as the person behind the works.

Drawing on his own life, he speaks about what art has taught him regarding identity and belonging, and how it can open conversations about difficult topics such as racism, depression, family, and hope. The lecture is interactive: the audience is invited to participate in dialogue rather than simply listen.

The central question is whether art can help us find home within ourselves and each other.
