Durrës

Founded in March 2020, Radio Alhara is an online radio station based in Bethlehem, Palestine. Initially emerging as a response to global lockdowns, it has since grown into a dynamic cultural platform that transcends borders. Rooted in community, resistance, and artistic exchange, the station unites DJs, musicians, and thinkers from around the world, fostering a space for sonic experimentation and political discourse.

For three days, Aesthetic services circa 2025, 2025, a hairdressing public service is offered free of charge for the citizens of Durrës. Conceived as a conceptual and performative work by artist Iris Touliatou, the project reimagines acts of care, intimacy, and exchange within urban and institutional frameworks.

Based on subjective experiences, Flaka Haliti keeps on looking at our fragmented, contradictory present. At the centre of her artistic practice is the individual and the question, how identity is constructed in a global fluid militant world. The three billboards displayed at the Art Explora Festival in Durrës follow an "ethics of proximity" and reference the contradictions of our ambivalent contemporary reality, addressing socio-political issues such as migration and racism.
