As part of ReRouting’s curations-in-motion, various actions and events are organized, inviting publics to join our program and connect with others along the way. At times, the actions are independently initiated, simply bringing bodies to a place and within an artistic context framed by moving together. Other times, the walk actions act as an extension to an already existing exhibition or are conceptualised in partnership with other cultural spaces and initiatives.

Meeting point: GlogauAir Garden, Kreuzberg, Berlin
This collective walk aims to be a platform to reflect together on gendered (listening) experiences in public space and to unlearn some of the behaviors that are assumed as appropriate, safe or expected when we walk. Some first steps to question asymmetrical power relations and to imagine together practices of care, solidarity, re-appropriation or overturning that might feed other spatial configurations and practices. We will collectively perform scores by Pauline Oliveros, the Blank Noise collective and Elena Biserna herself to experiment with the limitations and potentialities of our silence, voice, noise and collective movement. This iteration of the walk will take place at Görlitzer Park, a public site currently embroiled in conflict in relation to its potential closure at night.

Meeting Point: FHXB Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg Museum Garden, Berlin
This screen printing ritual is a collective prayer—a shared act of dreaming toward a world without police or prisons. It is also an offering in honor of all those who have shown up in their own ways: marching in the streets, educating their communities, raising funds for the people of Gaza, or simply sharing solidarity online—for Palestine, the most dissident path in contemporary Germany.

Meeting point: Schillingbrücke, Friedrichshain/Kreuzberg, Berlin
This performance takes the form of a guided walk along the Mediaspree area, a site that has undergone drastic transformation over the past decades. Once a contested urban space, it now stands as a concrete symbol of neoliberal urban development, despite persistent and long-standing protests, including a citizen referendum. Performers turn the walk into a living echo of Berlin’s lost promise of affordable housing. Walking the Walls serves as a moving act of remembrance and resistance, revisiting past efforts and highlighting the ongoing struggle for housing justice in Berlin.
The walk was live-mapped by Diana Lucas-Drogan

Meeting Point: Kottbuser Tor, Kreuzberg, Berlin
A bridge emerges where the road appears to end—reshaping limits into links. It holds the in-between: between streets, between directions, between movements. Unfolding across the span, we begin at the conjunction point—where we walk, pause, observe, and make our presence visible. This walk invites participants to step into a space of tension and transformation, where every step reflects the larger systems that govern us: systems of state-sanctioned police violence, racialized violence, and the right to demonstrate.

Meeting point: Manga-Bell Platz, Wedding, Berlin
This walk opens up a fugitive learning space: one that resists the prescriptive and embraces the messy, liminal terrains where transformation takes shape. Moving through Volkspark Rehberge and Wedding, we navigate a district shaped by diasporic presence, leftist working-class struggles and Germany’s colonial history.
Through sharing personal narratives, readings, and collective dialogue, the walk engages with themes of migration, remembrance culture, and resistance.

Meeting Point: P&R Schichauweg, Tempelhof-Schöneberg, Berlin
An interactive walk along parts of the trail of the Berlin Wall. This performative event combines walking as a collective practice with the memory of refugees from the GDR and the resistance against the authoritarian regime. Flowers will be collected along the way, which will later be laid down in front of the Marienfelde reception center. This center was set up in 1953 as an initial reception for GDR refugees and was the first safe haven and transition for many, before they were sent to West Germany. This walk looks to create a space for remembering the history of flight within Germany.

Meeting point: Westhafen S-Bahn + ZK/U (Zentrum für Kunst und Urbanistik), Berlin
Harbouring Voices is a sound workshop exploring Westhafen as a site of movement, memory, and containment. Containers, designed to enable transit, also obscure and confine – mirroring broader tensions around migration, borders, and urban belonging.
The workshop will begin with a two-hour walk around the harbour site, sharing stories, collectively discussing, exploring the surroundings, and gathering sounds along the way. Afterwards, we’ll head to the rooftop of ZK/U, overlooking the harbour, to continue the conversation through a collective sonic orchestral moment.

Meeting Point: nGbK Roof Terrace, Mitte, Berlin
Alternative Monument seeks forms that connect migration experiences and public memory culture. As a result of the current toxic discourse on migration in Germany, they feel an urgent need to connect and counteract. The purpose of their efforts is to establish a positive frame for migration discourse and counter current xenophobic movements.
Their augmented reality monument was showcased on the rooftop terrace of the nGbK near Alexanderplatz, offering an immersive exploration of migration’s traces via the Monuments AR app and a series of performative actions.

Meeting point: Tempelhofer Feld, Neukölln
Thresholds, frontiers and borders are everywhere. In our cities, on our maps, and yes, right at the edge of our picnic blankets. So why do we so rarely pull them onto the table and properly question them? What is out there? – Traces, Borders Spaces is not your average Sunday stroll. It’s a collaborative walking as learning from practice, grounded in place. Settled on a picnic blanket in the layered landscape of Tempelhofer Feld – probably Berlin’s most fiercely defended common ground – we ask: Who sets the table? Who gets a seat? And who decides what’s being served?

Meeting point: Moritzplatz, Kreuzberg - Aufbau Haus
Puddles emerge wherever humans leave their traces; they are part of the city. Mirja Busch has conceived Puddle Watching as an artistic walk that frames puddles anew and makes selected puddles around Berlin’s Moritzplatz visible, visitable and tangible-even in their dry state. The walk offers a new perspective on this weather phenomenon in interplay with the city.

Meeting Point: Topography of Terror
This walk invites you to a cross and connect together through threshold spaces of Mitte. Stacked with memory culture and vibrant erasure at the same time this passage in the political, historical and touristic center of the city will be approached with affection, patience and grief. Centuries of violence condensed in Disneyfication of historical anecdotes and cherry-picked victories. We will walk, pause, read, rethink, recognize and emerge transformed.

Meeting point: Memorial for the Victims of National Socialist »Euthanasia« Killings, Tiergarten
Four crip comrades gather around the Aktion T4 memorial, to share annotations in disabled life, and mourn those who have been murdered. Calling on crip knowledges from the past, we learn how disabled people have shifted our mourning practices for the violences of National Socialism euthanasia into public memory, and draw on the wisdom of our crip ancestors to question the politics of disposability of disabled bodyminds in their current local and global entanglements. On our way through Tiergarten, we walk along the question of how to foster a transnational axis of solidarity and we lie down together to dream up futures that we actually want.

Meeting Point: Priesterweg S-Bahn
What narratives can be subverted by focusing on the role of gardens as catalysts for urban development rather than on establishment buildings?
Departing from a comparison to Tirana, gardens in Berlin are separated from the house and placed elsewhere, making for different ways of inhabiting the space. Allotment and community gardens in Berlin constitute fragmentary instances of what being in the garden can be. Join us in an embodied walk as we explore the urban ecologies of Berlin’s allotment gardens as we walk around the Roseneck, Einigkeit, Alte Ziegenweide and Canova colonies, and reflect on themes of affect, care and sensorial commons.
This event is supported by Culture Moves Europe.

“We need stories that are just big enough to gather up the complexities and keep the edges open and greedy for surprising new and old connections.” Staying with the Trouble, Donna J. Haraway
The Amazons welcome you in the space they have long inhabited in the city: the Altes Musuem. Through an ecofeminist and decolonial lens, you will be invited to engage with the ancient warrior women, the legendary tales about them, and their home in Berlin—probably not their dream home, though.

From Bärenzwinger to Flussbad Garten, Berlin
The walk invites participants to move together to the rhythms of the water and share stories of waterways from both near and far. The Spree becomes a catalyst to weave connections with sources of water that have shaped culture, art, music, history, and more, reflecting on how they influence memory and imagination. The walk is led by Viviane Tabach and Clementine Butler-Gallie as part of ‘Day on and along the River’ an extension of Bärenzwinger’s exhibition ‘By Way of Water’.

The workshop took place in sessions across 2 weeks, inviting participants to explore what a "footnote" to their practice could be and how these ideas could be shared through a group walk. The sessions focused on practical, collective learning, using movement and shared exploration as methods of exchange. The workshop ended with a public presentation of footnotes across the Floating University site.

Taking this as a footnote from her time as walking resident, Mozh Dinani invites the group to walk backwards into the future.
