A sound space that makes history audible

The Decolonial Goods Store transforms EinLaden in Gelsenkirchen into an interactive sound installation full of voices, perspectives, and both subtle and clear friction points. On May 30, 2026, a place opens here where (Post-)Colonialism does not remain abstract, but becomes an exhibition experience, listening salon, and forum for dialogue that is directly tangible.

Between drawers, sound, and perspective shifts

The project relies on a special event atmosphere: Visitors move through an open sound space with temporary architecture made from used furniture. Opening drawers makes interviews, sounds, and texts visible and audible. This creates a deliberately decelerated event experience that invites listening, reflecting, and further questioning.

KMRU, Stefan Demming, and a strong artistic concept

A sound composition by KMRU shapes the project musically. The spatial and sound installation was created in cooperation with Stefan Demming and is conceived as a multiperspective work. Scientific, artistic, and social contributions interlink and give the theme of decolonization a clear, contemporary form.

An appointment with conversation, workshop, and room for exchange

The afternoon appointment is part of a longer exhibition phase with opening hours on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday as well as by arrangement. The format is complemented by introductory talks and a rap workshop with Dein Couseng, which requires registration. The Decolonial Goods Store thus convincingly combines cultural education, participation, and event planning.

Why a visit is worthwhile

The Decolonial Goods Store appeals to people looking for cultural projects with depth, attitude, and a strong target audience approach. The staging is calm, dense, and reflective - ideal for anyone who wants to engage with an unusual exhibition experience with social relevance.

Conclusion: The Decolonial Goods Store brings sound art, history, and dialogue to a special place in Gelsenkirchen. Those who want to experience decolonization sensually, rather than just discussing it, should visit this installation live.
