Claire Chaulet
Performing and visual arts | Project coordination | Facilitation
Claire (1990), co-founder of Artistania e. V., grew up in the suburbs of Paris with a German-French couple as parents. At the age of 19, afetr she travelled half a year in west africa with a theatre project, she moved to Berlin, where she started to conceptualise the organisation Artistania with her partner Saba Tsereteli. In addition to her artistic work, Claire studied Political Science at the FU Berlin, followed by further education in the field of Cultural Management at the FH Potsdam and a Masters in Adult Education / Lifelong Learning at the HU Berlin.
Saba Tsereteli
Saba Tsereteli was born in Tbilisi, Georgia in 1985 and moved to Berlin in 2009. He is the cofounder and art director of Artistania, a multi-disciplinary and intercultural art center based in Neukölln, Berlin. He is also the cofounder of the theatre company „Theatre of Details“.
Saba Tsereteli works to document current affairs while creating a visual language that addresses complex and delicate issues in a way that is approachable and undiscriminating to the interpreter.
By creating large scale, mixed material installations, the artist gives presence to these issues with often surprising results; towing the line between the humorous and the tragic ways that these scenarios play out on the global political stage.
Thym'Art
Martin Ducreau or Thym’Art is a street artist from France living in Berlin, Germany.
Thym’Art sees himself as a Social Painter, by spreading his specific colors and elements around the world in order to enhance social interactions in local areas, and connect people beyond boarders.
Besides his street work, including also leading workshops, Thym’Art is co-founder of TING Space and a core member of Artistania eV. in Berlin, where he deepens his artistic expression since 2016.
Nowadays, Thym’Art also gives a second life to his paintings and the walls by projecting video mapping animations on them.
Miriam Aberkane
Miriam Aberkane moved in 2009 to Berlin, seducted by the cultural temptations of the city. Studying litterature she started also searching for the texts woven outside uni, in the middle of all the chaos - and found poem nights, writer's circles and, for sure, a lot of poetry slams. But besides these mental oasis' in the big city she also got interested in real ones - the green islands of Urban Gardening. These are projects which return nature as well as alimentary and social independence to the people - an idea which captivated her. With all these impressions, she decided to participate in Artistania: 'Getting inspired and giving something back' was her idea about it. So every time she is in Berlin, she is supporting all kinds of projects of the association and working on a litterature concept for Artistania.
