Towards Empathy

As part of the ongoing Towards Empathy project, which began its long-term journey in 2025, invited curators from Thailand, Somrak Sila and Krai Sridee, are currently in Myanmar from May to June.

During their stay, they are meeting with members of each focus group participating in the project and developing plans for the Final Presentation, which forms an important component of the Towards Empathy project. Through these exchanges and preparations, the curators are working towards shaping an artistic presentation that reflects the collaborative process and research developed throughout the program.

Following the completion of their trip, further updates and upcoming activities related to the Towards Empathy project will continue to be shared. We warmly invite audiences to follow the social media channels of Goethe-Institut Myanmar for future announcements and developments.
