What memories, languages, and rituals come alive when we gather around a table?
TATAR KYZ:LAR (@tatarkyzlar) are part of the Transgressive Memory Festival 2026 performance programme with a very special ceremony.
Created by allapopp (@allapopp) and Dinara Rasuleva (@pustotalitarism), TATAR KYZ:LAR is a punk electronic music and poetry performative project that explores what it means to reclaim and reimagine identity following the loss, displacement, or fragmentation of native culture and language. Bringing together ritual, poetry, electronic sound, and an immersive game space, the work opens a shared setting in which memory can be performed, negotiated, and collectively reshaped.
allapopp is a Berlin-based interdisciplinary media and performance artist from Tatarstan whose work spans digital art, music, performance, installation, and mixed-reality formats.
Dinara Rasuleva is a Berlin-based writer and poet_ess born in Kazan, Tatarstan, whose multilingual practice moves across Tatar, Russian, English, and German to explore language as a space of memory, loss, and resistance.
Together, TATAR KYZ:LAR invite audiences into a space where inherited histories can be revisited otherwise, and where collective rituals may offer new ways of imagining belonging.
