LINA Fellows x Forecast: DELKUDEL

A fleeting urban game and rehearsal in public attention: This participatory walk is a guided urban practice that invites participants to read, activate, and gently disrupt public space through play, movement, and collective attention. Drawing on ritual logics and invisible heritage practices—without fixing them to a single place or history—the event explores how cities perform or materialize care, protection, satire, and transition.

Rather than offering explanations, participants engage in a series of embodied exercises that reframe how they move through, interpret, and inhabit the city. The experience culminates in a collective movement-based action by the water, returning what has been borrowed from the city.

Heritage is seen as a practice, the city as both a playground and ritual site, participants as co-readers and co-authors building their own notation systems.

DELKUDEL is a Kosovo-based platform founded by Diona Kusari and Amalia Koleka. It is a modular, participatory platform that creates alternative tours, performative walks, and curated experiences based on oral histories, niche cultural practices, and spatial dynamics. Through gamified experiences and mediation methods, they explore and reimagine cultural identity, truth, and memory, bringing together community storytelling, personal narration, intergenerational exchange, and generally tools that are disruptive and embodied to explore critical memory and activate places in new ways. By situating themselves between collective ownership models, performative practice, psychogeography and systems thinking, they act through interactive site takeovers, urban geotagging practices, collective performative rituals.

The event will be facilitated by Diona Kusari. Diona is a multidisciplinary artist, writer and researcher, cultural and arts mediator based in Kosovo. She creates performances, video and sound art, installations, short films and participatory works. Her work is concerned with illustrating the ‘unseen’ in terms of ideology and faith, folk practices, public expression of vulnerability, and challenging the apparent dichotomies and delineation of private space—the individual, and public space—the state, society.
