Dreamers Jewellery started with a wish from Tamar Tskitishvili to make special jewellery for her friends as one-of-a-kind gifts; an idea that later turned into a startup. Tamar, who lives in Tbilisi, will present her new bracelets, pendants and rings at Halfsister displays; Besides the new pieces, Dreamers will have a video launch of the Spring-Summer 2024 campaign.
Verdable 03 is a mini “grow” table by berianastudio (Sophie Schön-Berianidze and Anna Klump) it has an open cylindrical monopole base specifically designed for plants and comes in three different sizes and colors. A colored steel base contrasts beautifully with the mirror or colored glass surface of the table presenting the plant or flowers as though they are floating.
Sunflower seeds are eaten a lot in Georgia. Tina Siradze will offer the seeds as they are sold in Georgia, in old newspaper cones. She will also bring the selection of her outfits to display and sell during the event.
After having a long break, Ana Tabatadze started making tattoos again and she will offer a limited number of tattoo flashes for this day. She will also display some of her wearable drawings.
I Ching, also called Book of Changes, is an ancient Chinese oracle book that answers questions referring to the text accompanying one of 64 hexagrams. There are several ways to read hexagrams and Francois Desormeau mastered the way to read the excerpt the way oracle means to you.
Elene Duduchava is Berlin based visual storyteller from Georgia and has long been interested in modern witchcraft and tarot reading. She will be a mediator between you and the tarot symbols.
Saya is a professional bartender from Tokyo that lives in Berlin. She creates cocktails with amazing names and tastes in order to bring new Tokyo vibes to Berlin.
Pirimze is a 40 minute documentary film by Sophia Tabatadze.
It researches social and visual changes affecting a six-floor edifice from the Soviet era, built especially to house repair and maintenance services. The theme unfolds a broader picture and shows what has been happening in Georgia since the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Part of Transmediale Vorspiel 2023
NEIGHBORS / non-human city life is a video installation by Lilli Kuschel about the life of crows in Berlin. This video installation follows crows in Berlin and explors a city in transformation. Rapid urbanisation is one of the most prevalent drivers for the loss of biodiversity, but crows are experts in adapting to city life. Intimate observations of key moments in the life of these highly intelligent birds and a visual research on how the animals rededicate Berlin’s changing cityscape and architecture open up new perspectives on a more-than-human-world.
Lilli Kuschel is an artist, filmmaker and camerawoman. She researches on urban ecologies, the „More-than-human“ and cohabitation at the University of Arts Berlin, where she teaches experimental film and media art.
