kava, kophee, kaphī, kôfē, kape… Mia Ribić

Project description

Installation transforms the familiar ritual of engaging in coffee conversations into a platform for meaningful dialogue on the cultural integration of foreign workers and its challenges within Croatia. Featuring a coffee table where screens replace interlocutors, participants are invited to sit and select one of the coffee cups labeled with different topics. By selecting a cup, conversations unfold on the screens and actors engage in dialogues related to the chosen topic. Discussions unfold in front of the audience making them silent observers. This project invites the audience to continue the experiment by reflecting inwardly or starting conversations about the topics discussed.
